12 Board of Selectmen

The May Town Election resulted in the election of John H. Griffin who had served on the Board in the late 1970's and the re-election of Cleon Turner who had been completing the unexpired term of Cathy Brown. Cleon Turner's margin of victory was such that it required the first recount in a very long time to determine the seat. After the election the reorganization of the Board resulted in the following: Cleon H. Turner, Chairman, John H. Griffin, Vice-Chairman and Chairman of the Licensing Board, Robert E. Crowell, Clerk, Charles F. Crowell, and Heidi S. Schadt. The Board reviewed and reestablished its goals and objectives for fiscal 1997. The Board's goals and objectives are an important tool in aiding in the development of a municipal budget that is within the ability of the taxpayers to pay and that the taxpayers are willing to support. It is always the Board's objective, in establishing goals and objectives and in creating a budget, to create a policy document that reflects the needs and preferences of the community. The 1997 budget was a particular challenge, in part because of the financial conflicts between the municipal budget and the school budget. Though the municipal budget required no override, the school budget, as originally proposed, would have required a considerable override. The School Committee worked long and hard to bring their budget to a number that would not require an override and that would not cause the municipal budget to suffer dramatically. For that the Selectmen and the taxpayers are grateful. The Selectmen recognize and appreciate the difficulties the School Commit- tee faces with dramatic reductions in state aid to schools. The Board of Selectmen and its staff will continue to work with the School Committee and its staff to develop budgets that will allow both the Town and the schools to meet their important needs. We are a single community. Also high on the Selectmen's priority list for the past year has been addressing fire needs, municipal building needs, and infrastructure improvements. The Board looks forward to working with staff and the community in moving closer to accomplishing those major goals in fiscal 1998. The Board would be unable to accomplish much without the continued and great efforts shown by its administrative staff and the employees of the Town. We believe the Town is fortunate to be staffed with exceptional management personnel and dedicated employees. Our volunteer board members are without question a major benefit to the community and without whom we would be a lesser community. For our staff, our employees, and our volunteers, we are grateful.

Respectfully submitted, Cleon H. Turner, Chairman John H. Griffin, Vice-Chairman Robert E. Crowell, Clerk Charles F. Crowell Heidi S. Schadt

19 Annual Town Meeting Tuesday, May 7, 1996

Robert C. Chamberlain, Moderator, convened the Annual Town Meet- ing at 7:05 p.m. at the Nathaniel H. Wixon Middle School. He declared a quorum present at the meeting and noted that the Warrant had been posted by Robert Mitchell, Constable. Tellers were Dorothy Bell, Robert Briggs, Mary Dumas, Gladys Kearney, Benjamin Muse, Paul Peterson, Richard Tobin, Walter VonHone and Theodore Dumas, Head Teller. The Wixon Middle School Band under the direction of John Todd presented a rousing rendition of the Star Spangled Banner. Paul Peterson, representing the Council on Aging, acknowledged the accomplishments of the late Dr. James S. Peace who died shortly before Town Meeting and who was a popular long-time resident of Dennis. An educator, Dr. Peace had taught for many years at the College of the City of New York being named Professor Emeritus of the college. He became Director of Guidance at Sandwich High School after moving to East Dennis in 1969, later joining the faculty of Cape Cod Commu- nity College as Director of Community Services. In 1974, he was named Executive Director of the Cape and Islands Home Care, Inc., which later became Elder Services of Cape Cod and the Islands. He served in that capacity until 1984 when he retired. Also, he was a member of the District Attorney's Victim/Witness program serving as a member of the Elder Abuse unit and was the Volunteer State Coordinator for Criminal Justice for the American Association of Retired Persons. Etta Goodstein, Chairman of the Henry Boles Committee, noted that instead of presenting a scholarship to a graduating senior from the Town of Dennis the Committee, with the approval of a prior Town Meeting, decided to recognize students in the lower grades for their outstanding citizenship. Students invited to step forward to receive $50.00 U. S. Savings Bonds were third grade students, Brooke Sullivan and Evan Bianco; also, Kelli A. Nielsen and Kenneth M. Lewis, of the Wixon School and Sarah Waldo, Cape Cod Academy.

Article 1. Unanimously Voted: To accept the reports of the Town Officers as printed and made available to the public on April 1, 1996.

Article 2. The Finance Committee presented the following report: At the time this booklet, the Recommendations of the Finance Committee, went to print, there were some recommendations pending additional consideration by the Finance Committee. Your Finance Committee has reviewed both the Budget and Warrant articles thoroughly.

20 As we commence this Town Meeting, it should be noted that there are some areas in which the Board of Selectmen and the Finance Committee have differing opinions. One area is the proposed uses of Free Cash and the balance to remain in Free Cash at the end of the Town Meeting. If the Board of Selectmen's recommendations are followed, the balance remaining in the Town's Free Cash would be $168,935. If all the recommendations of the Finance Committee are followed in the Budget and Warrant articles, the Town would have a healthy Free Cash position of $263,935. We urge your careful consideration of these matters.

Article 3. Unanimously Voted: That the Town assume liability in the manner provided by Section 29, Chapter 91 of the Massachusetts General Laws as amended, for all damages that may be incurred by the work to be performed by the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Management for the improvement, development, maintenance and protection of tidal and non-tidal rivers and streams, harbors, tidewaters, foreshores, and shores along a public beach in accordance with Sec- tion 11, Chapter 91 of the Massachusetts General Laws and authorize the Selectmen to execute and deliver a bond of indemnity therefor to the Commonwealth.

46 als with cardiovascular disease, and individuals with impaired respira- tory function, including asthmatics and those with obstructive airway disease.

Ch. 40 A, and any amendment therein. 1.9 EFFECTIVE DATE Upon its effective date, this By-Law shall amend and be substituted for the existing Zoning By-Law of the Town of Dennis, but shall not affect such rights or duties that have matured, penalties that were incurred, proceedings that were begun or appointments made before its effective date, pursuant to the previously effective Zoning By-Law, except as provided by M.G.L.

153 Police Department

The past year was one of transition for the Police Department as we continue to meet our objective of providing community oriented policing services to Town residents. With Captain Ronald Marotta's retirement after 32 years of service, promotions were made to the command staff. Lieuten- ant William Yoo was appointed to fill the Captain's position. Sergeant Wil- liam Monahan was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant and Officer Peter Benson was promoted to the rank of Sergeant. A nineteen year veteran Officer, David Yoo, left the department in 1996. I congratulate the newly appointed Superior Officers, wish Captain Marotta and Officer Yoo well and thank them on behalf of all the members of the department for their many years of dedication to the citizens of the Town of Dennis. They will be missed. In addition to the severe winter weather of 1996, I believe the Department's community policing efforts were a contributing factor to the decline in the crime rate. Residential burglaries fell by almost 43% in the past year. Reports of serious crime declined nearly 24 percent. All categories - except for forcible rape - registered a slight decrease. Rape increased from one to two offenses. Violent crime (rape, robbery and aggravated assault) dropped almost 12%, from 59 to 52 offenses. Simple assaults registered a 6% decline from 161 to 151 incidents. In total, property crimes declined by 23.5 percent. Vehicle break-ins were an exception to this trend. Thefts from motor vehicles increased by 57%, from 75 offenses in 1995 to 118 in 1996. Vandalism investigations increased slightly from 167 to 173. The Department continually strives not only to fight crime but, just as importantly, to reduce the fear of crime in our community. Bicycle patrols were expanded and Officers on bikes regularly patrolled neighborhoods, apartment complexes, senior housing, and certain business and recreation areas in conjunction with regular cruiser patrols. In particular, residents who experienced problems with vandalism or who felt uncomfortable with groups of people congregating in parking lots or streets in their neighborhoods without legitimate purpose have enthusiastically welcomed the pres- ence of the Bike Officers. Our Crime Prevention Officer, Thomas Martin, continues to work to encourage citizens to become involved in neighborhood watch programs. Officer Craig Stevenson continued his part-time function as an in-school police liaison. Officer Carole Johnson provided Drug Abuse Resistance Education (D.A.R.E.) and other child safety programs at the Wixon and Ezra Baker Schools. The Bike Patrol Unit conducted a bicycle rodeo at the Wixon school to stress safe aspects of bike riding to children. Officer James Sullivan was assigned to coordinate the Department's traffic safety and enforcement programs. An important result this year was the tentative agreement by the Massachusetts Highway De- partment to construct a clover leaf at the interchange of Route 6 and Route

154 134. The Selectmen, Department of Pubic Works and the Police Depart- ment have been working on this recommendation for a number of years. The Department has also assigned Officer Stevenson to a Family Ser- vices Officer position created to provide oversight and follow-up on domestic investigations as well as incidents impacting elderly victims. With the assistance of a federal grant, the Department also began a Police-based Victim Assistance Program in December. Staffed by a civilian Victim Ser- vices Coordinator working three days a week, this program is designed to provide better follow-up contact with crime and domestic violence victims about the status of their cases. In the short time this program has been in existence it appears to be offering desired reassurance and contact for people who do not have immediate access to court-based programs until, or if, an arrest is made. Just as important, it is beginning to make better use of Department resources by freeing up sworn personnel from this function for investigative and patrol duties. Domestic violence and other family related matters continue to be a challenge for this community and the Police Department which is a primary resource for many families facing these issues. Although there was a slight 2% decline from last year, the Department still responded to 322 domestic violence related calls this year - an average of one every 27 hours. In addition, over 70 investigations of missing persons or runaway children were conducted. An average of 2 emergency, temporary, extended, modified or vacated restraining orders were processed every court day - in total, approximately 500 per year. As of December 31, 1996, restraining orders were in effect at 107 locations in the community (89 households and 18 work places, including schools). Both the state and federal government are making grants available to local law enforcement agencies to provide Police services and we continue to apply for this funding to augment local appropriations. In 1996 we expended just over $75,000 in grant awards for computer hardware/software and community police functions including D.A.R.E., bicycle equipment/patrols and crime prevention. Grant funds continue to pay for a portion of the salaries of one Police Officer and the Victim Services Coordinator. Extra patrols were also funded for traffic safety and to target underage procure- ment of alcohol. The Department continued a major overhaul of its computer system which was authorized by voters in 1995. The entire project is scheduled for completion in 1997. Two major components were placed on line this year - computer aided dispatch (CAD) and arrest/booking. The CAD system now provides instant access to information for officers responding on complaints including call history and restraining orders for a specific address. The system also identifies the possible existence of persons with disabilities at an address based on information submitted on a voluntary basis by the disabled person as part of the statewide 9-1-1 project. When the CAD system was placed on line at the end of June, we were able to convert to a unit- based system of tabulating calls for service to provide a truer picture of our patrol division's activity. In addition to traditional citizen-initiated calls, the

155 new system allows us to identify Officer-initiated activity and situations where more than one patrol unit is tied up on a call. This process identified over 18,000 police service calls in 1996. As depicted on the following activity charts, calls handled at the Police station and reports of crime have been separated from calls for service to give us a better idea of Police- related activity by village. Severe weather was also a factor during the hurricane season as Hur- ricanes Bertha (July); Edouard (Labor Day weekend), and Hortense (Sep- tember) required the Police Department to coordinate with other Town agencies (Fire, Public Works, Health, Beach, Natural Resource, Harbormaster, Council on Aging), as well as the Red Cross and D-Y School District personnel to activate emergency management protocols. Al- though certain precautions, including beach closings, were taken during the approach of Bertha, Edouard proved to be the most serious threat before it turned out to sea during its final approach on the night of September 1 and the early morning hours of September 2. Because of the potential for damage and loss of life during this storm, evacuation procedures were commenced and over 100 people spent the night in a shelter opened at the Wixon School. The total cost to the Town for added public safety functions and storm clean-up because of the storm was $36,381.00. Expenses for the shelter which was funded by the Red Cross was an additional $2,008. In addition to assigning personnel to evacuation efforts, the Police De- partment responded to 305 service calls - including 3 domestic incidents - on this Sunday and Monday. The majority of problems were limited to power outages, downed trees and people congregating at beaches with serious surf conditions. There were also numerous downed electrical lines at which officers were required to standby for periods of up to 14 hours. The most serious incident was a fire at a residence on Old Mayfair Road around 2:30 a.m. Police Officer David Tinelli discovered the fire while on patrol in the area at the height of the storm. With the help of citizen John Thomas, he entered the burning house and dragged an unconscious female occupant to safety. Although seriously burned, she survived. Mr. Thomas was publicly recognized by the Board of Selectmen and the Police and Fire Departments for his efforts. Officer Tinelli was issued the second Medal of Honor in Department history for his actions. I would like to recognize Town Administration and all other Town Depart- ments as well as the Water and School Districts for their continued cooperation. This report demonstrates the professional commitment of all of the men and women who fill the Police Departments 35 full-time sworn and 8 civilian positions as well as 16 part-time seasonal and on-call positions. Each of these individuals continue to be the reason for our ability to provide professional police services to the Town of Dennis. I am grateful to them.

Respectfully submitted, John Symington Chief of Police

164 Fire Department

Again, the year closed with a continued increase in the total number of emergency responses made by the Dennis Fire Department. In 1996 responses totaled 3,285, of which 1,139 were for fire/public service related and 2,146 were for emergency medical service. Again, as the need for service continues to escalate, it is imperative that plans for departmental growth be addressed in order to maintain a high standard of care. The Fire Service Needs Committee has made their recommendation to the Board of Selectmen who plan to present it to the voters at the Annual Town Meet- ing. At the Special Town Meeting in December, the Selectmen requested funds to hire an architect and a structural engineer to examine the structural integrity of Station One. A cost analysis will also be completed com- paring the cost to refurbish the station to that of building a brand new facility. A finalized report will be presented to the voters at the Annual Town Meeting. We continue to make strides in the on-going program to replace and refurbish the Department's apparatus. This year we have placed in service a new Emergency One pumper, replacing a 1972 Maxim pumper, and two four-wheel drive vehicles for the primary use of the Duty Officer and the Fire Inspector. These replace two-wheel drive vehicles, thus improving response capabilities in adverse weather conditions. With money transferred from the Ambulance Reserve Account the department's 1990 ambulance was rechassied. This ambulance, along with the new ambulance purchased last year, have worked together to improve the Department's overall response to EMS incidents, while not at all impacting the tax rate. Last year the Dennis and Yarmouth Fire Departments were awarded grant money to address student awareness in fire education. This program was a tremendous success, and I thank all involved for putting forth the efforts to help educate our young citizens. It is our intent to re-apply for this funding now, so that we will be able to continue to develop a comprehensive fire safety program within our school system. We continue to offer programs for the public ranging from CPR, first aid and home safety. It is our hope that community groups and organizations will call upon our many resources. We are presently working with the Council on Aging on the "Vial of Life Program" for the senior citizens of Dennis. This program affords an individual the ability to maintain an up-to-date personal medical history within their home so it will be accessible to department personnel in case of emergency. This year saw the retirement of FF/EMT Walter Story who served in this department for 25 years. Alice Hoffman, department secretary and 28 year Town employee, also retired. We wish them both well in their future endeavors. Special commendations for exemplary acts were awarded to Dennis Police Officer David Tinelli and Mr. John Thomas of Mayfair Road, South Dennis. These awards were in recognition for effecting the rescue of a

165 semi-conscious fire victim from a well-involved structure fire. This rescue was performed prior to the arrival of Department personnel and was undertaken at great risks to those involved. As always, the commitment and dedication of the men and women of this Department is unmatched and truly appreciated. In closing, I wish to thank the residents of Dennis, the Board of Select- men, the Town Administrator's Office and other fellow municipal employees for their continued support during the past year.

Respectfully submitted, Paul A. Tucker Chief of Department

The license and club inspections are down as the Fire Department was not involved in the night inspections of clubs and bars this year. This year the Department was also busy with fire investigations. We have been very successful in both cause and origin determination and the prosecution of persons in arson cases. This has been possible by the excellent cooperation of the Dennis Police, State Fire Marshal's office, and the Massachusetts State Police.

170 Fire Services Needs Committee

The initial organizational meeting of the Committee was held on No- vember 21, 1995. The charge from the Board of Selectmen included the review of existing facilities, equipment, staffing and potential expansion, as well as improving advanced life support response time to the northside without significant changes in response time to the southside. The Committee unanimously made the following recommendations to the Board of Selectmen on May 28,1996: 1. Funds be allocated to contract with a professional to evaluate the potential to rehabilitate Fire Station #1. 2. Eight additional staff be added to the Fire Department. The staff additions will be comprised of four additional Firefighter/Paramed- ics and four Dispatchers. 3. On an initial basis, Station #2 is to be manned with the appropriate personnel assigned by the Fire Chief. 4. The Fire Chief be instructed to monitor response times from Sta- tion #2 to evaluate their adequacy. 5. If the advanced life support response time is determined to be inadequate from Station #2, consideration should be given to the construction of a new station to maximize the five minute response time for most Dennis residents. The mapping studies undertaken to date indicate that locations at Rte. 134 and Setucket Road or possibly at Old Bass River Road and Setucket could provide five minute response time to 95% of the registered voters in the Town of Dennis.

175 Town Counsel

Town Counsel performs numerous legal services for the Town of Dennis. While litigation is an important component of legal representation, and makes for interesting news reporting, it does not necessarily represent the most important part of the Town's legal work. Prevention of litigation and dispute resolution without litigation are the most valuable of all legal services. As in past years, we have during 1996 advised the Town on numerous and diverse subjects, in opinions rendered orally or in writing to the Board of Selectmen, Town Administrator and other boards and officers. Subjects of opinions during calendar 1996 have included proposed zoning By-Law amendments and Board of Health regulations, taxation, betterments, regional school finance, liquor licensing, contracts, competitive bidding and general liability issues. We have also reviewed numerous contracts, licenses and real estate documents. During 1996, the Town was a defendant in fewer than twenty lawsuits, but has nevertheless spent only a modest portion of its legal budget for litigation. Several lawsuits terminated in 1996 without the need for trial, either due to plaintiff's failure to prosecute or because the plaintiff decided to voluntarily dismiss the action. Cases terminated this year included several special permit appeals and an appeal to a denial of subdivision approval, neither of which involved monetary claims against the Town. As is typically the case, a number of lawsuits were brought this year by abutters to property for which a zoning or wetlands permit was issued, challenging the permit. Such cases usually do not warrant the expenditure of municipal funds for the defense of the permit, since there is no financial exposure to the Town and there is, ordinarily, only local interest in whether the land- owner retains the permit. Two such land use cases were brought in 1996, and the parties have not yet taken action in either. Should the parties eventually agree that the contested permit may stand, but on modified terms, any proposed settlement will be reviewed both by the Town Board involved and Town Counsel before any changes to the permit are made as part of a settlement. Two related permit cases, one involving the Board of Health and one involving the Conservation Commission, remain pending since 1993 and 1994, respectively. Although these are the most significant of the Town's presently pending litigation, in terms of time invested there has been no cost to the taxpayers for our services, since defense costs are being paid in full by the Town's insurer. At year's end, revised plans were under consideration by both Boards, with a view toward possible settlement of both cases. Labor and personnel matters requiring attention this year included such issues as a review of federal requirements as to drug and alcohol testing. The Town's practice as to Dispatcher overtime was challenged and upheld by an Arbitrator, and the Labor Relations Commission found in favor of the

176 Town as to issues arising out of the formation of the management/administrative union. Several grievances were also resolved favorably to the Town. In real estate, the major work in 1996 was occasioned by a petition brought by a private party in Land Court for the purpose of registering property abutting Swan Pond River. In that case, the Town's interests have been protected by an agreement in which the Town is to obtain clear, registered title to the wetland portion of the property as well as a conservation restriction on additional land. It is a pleasure, as well as an honor, for the firm of Kopelman and Paige, P.C. to continue to service as Town Counsel to the Town of Dennis. The professionalism and dedication of the Town's many fine officers, boards and employees add immeasurably to the solid legal standing of this Town. I thank each Town employee who has assisted us.

177 Animal Control Officer

I hereby respectfully submit the Annual Report of the Animal Control Officer for the year 1996. The sharp increase in the number of stray, abandoned and feral cat complaints demonstrates the importance of educating the public on the responsible care of their feline as well as canine compan- ions. Pet care is approached in a casual manner by many people, from keeping vaccinations current to preventing unwanted litters from being born. This department wants to emphasize the need to spay and neuter all pets, cats as well as dogs and males as well as females, and appreciates those people whose observance of responsible pet ownership rules helps keep their pets and their community safe and happy.

179 Dennis Housing Authority

FY'96 was a very busy year for the Dennis Housing Authority. In July the search for a new Executive Director began with the formation of a search committee. After several months of interviews and reference checks Kathy Barrasso was appointed Executive Director in February. There was also a decision to hire a new Fee Accounting Firm. The firm of Robert, Finnegan & Lynah was chosen and received a one year contract. The Board of Commissioners in November of 1995 made public the following reports: FY'94 Audit Report, EOCD Report, and HUD Report. The Authority continues to work at correcting the audit findings. At this time the Commissioners began to review and update current policies. The Authority- owned properties were toured and a list of items needing attention was compiled. In October the Authority was fortunate to receive the services of the Sheriff's Community Service Work Crews. Among the many items addressed were window washing at our elderly sites, building of stairs and deck, building and replacing of countertops and restoration of several vacant units. Their assistance to us is invaluable. Other improvements made in 95 included installation of a new intercom system, new carpeting and safety locks on community room doors. The Housing Authority would also like to take this opportunity to thank Stephen Lombard, Town Administrator, and Dennis Hanson, DPW Super- intendent, for their assistance in clearing snow for emergency vehicles and for their help with our recycling programs. The Housing Authority appreciates the support we receive from the Police and Fire Departments, Board of Health, Council on Aging, Elder Services and Department of Public Works. We look forward to working with them in the years to come.

180 Engineering Department

At the 1995 Annual Town Meeting, voters, recognizing the need to upgrade the Town's failing infrastructure, funded nearly 1.8 million dollars in repair work over a two year period. During 1996 the Engineering Depart- ment once again provided planning, survey and design services to the De- partment of Public Works in the completion of this infrastructure work. Road resurfacing projects in which Engineering provided technical support included: Beach Street, Nobscusset Road and Howes Street in Dennis Vil- lage; Depot Street, Lower County Road and North Road, Dennisport; Air- line Road, School Street, South Street and Scargo Hill Road, East Dennis; and Ferry Street, Uncle Freeman's Road, Fisk Street and a portion of Cove Road, West Dennis. Drainage repairs were also designed and completed on Captain Pres- ton Road, Edward's Avenue, Shad Hole Road, Lower County Road, Tele- graph Road, Oak Street, Old Wharf Road, Sesuit Neck Road, Old Bass River Road and Scargo Hill Road. The Engineering Department surveyed, designed and prepared bid documents for the reconstruction of the Sea Street Revetment Wall, the reconstruction of Standish Way, Raycroft Parkway and a portion of Cove Road in South Dennis. Looking ahead to 1997, we are already working on plans for the reconstruction of Center Street in South Dennis and Kibby Lane in Dennisport; drainage systems on Old Wharf, Scarsdale, Corporation and Old Chatham Roads; as well as the Oak Ridge Cemetery plan, stormwater mitigation measures on Swan River and the replacement of numerous culverts on Chase Garden Creek. We will also continue to administer the progress of design plans for the reconstruction of Setucket Road, the installation of pollution mitigation measures to several drainage outfalls into Swan Pond River, the replacement of the Loring Avenue culvert on Weir Creek, West Dennis, and the development of a full interchange at Exit 9 of the Mid Cape Highway. Finally, I'd like to personally thank the Engineering Staff for a job well done. They have not received enough credit for the enormous volume of quality work this small office has generated in the past five years.

Respectfully submitted, Joseph A. Rodricks, P.E. Town Engineer

181 Caleb Chase & Jonathan Mathews Trust Funds

The Trustees, together with Marie Giunta of the Assessor's Office, met on December 6, 1996 after ascertaining, from the Town Treasurer, the amounts available for distribution. Last year's list of recipients was adjusted to meet the terms of the Trusts, necessitating the loss of two individuals. However, two other persons met qualifications and were added to the list. Thus, with a loss of two and an offsetting gain, it was unanimously voted to authorize a distribution of $60.00 to each of 22 qualified recipients. Said authorization, totalling $1,320.00 was met by the Town Trea- surer, by charging $840.00 against earnings of the Caleb Chase Fund and $480.00 against Jonathan Mathews Fund receipts.

182 Cape Cod Commission

The year 1996 brought a close to six years of service on the Cape Cod Commission by Donald J. LeBlanc. I would like to thank Mr. LeBlanc for his dedication and the expertise that he brought to the many issues that come before the Cape Cod Commission. Since being appointed to the Cape Cod Commission, I have been asked many times to explain what the Cape Cod Commission is and what it does. The Commission was granted authority to prepare and oversee the implementation of a regional land use policy plan, to recommend for designation specific areas of Cape Cod as districts of critical planning concern, and to review and regulate developments of regional impact. The purpose of the Cape Cod Commission is: to further the conservation and preservation of natural undeveloped areas, flora, wildlife, and habitats for the en- dangered species; the preservation of coastal resources including aquaculture; the protection of ground water, surface water and ocean water quality, as well as the other natural resources of Cape Cod, balanced with economic growth; investigate the direct regional impact of Wireless Communi- cation Towers; the development of fair affordable housing; the provision of adequate capital facilities, including transportation, water supply and solid and hazardous waste disposal facilities; and the preservation of historical, cultural, archaeological, architectural, and recreational values. Issues before the Cape Cod Commission which directly effect the Town of Dennis are the proposed full cloverleaf for exit #9 on Route #6 which the Commonwealth of Massachusetts finally has decided to incorporate in its plans for Route #6, and Home Depot. Home Depot is not likely to come before the Commission again until late spring or early summer of 1997. Please be assured that ail committees, Selectmen and interested parties will be notified if this time frame is changed. The County Dredge "Codfish" has started dredging Swan River. This project should be completed before spring.

183 Cape Cod Regional Technical High School District

Again we extend our gratitude to the members of the communities in our district who have afforded us the opportunity to be of service. Several major projects were completed for district towns saving the taxpayers many thousands of dollars. We were privileged to serve a multitude of district residents by providing services in Culinary Arts, Cosmetology, Carpentry, Electrical, Plumbing, Marine Mechanics, Masonry, Auto Technology, Auto Collision Technology, Horticulture, Graphic Arts, Heating/Ventilation/Air Conditioning, Electronics, and Welding, enabling our students to refine their skills while instilling pride in their accomplishments which is the ulti- mate goal of vocational technical education. Additionally, we maintain an excellent Co-operative Program with local businesses. Eleventh graders were the first students to be enrolled in the new two- year Dental Assisting Program and their learning experience took place within a new well-equipped dental lab. Also initiated was a CAD (Computer Aided Design) Program which provides support services and training to our vocational technical programs. Our new Library has become the Techno- logical Center of Cape Cod Tech. As is our usual practice, we will have a very busy summer at the school, providing academic makeup and enrichment classes for high school and middle school students in the Lower Cape Creative Enrichment Program in conjunction with Chathan, Nauset, and Harwich. Additionally, there will be approximately 90 students in the Job Training and Employ- ment Corporation Program, 50 students from grades 5, 6, and 7 in the Summer Exploratory Program vocational venture, 12 students in the Work Experience Program, a Life Skills Program, an Adult Evening Program, a Soccer Camp, and the annual Quilt Show. An Admissions Policy, Affirmative Action Policy, Five-Year Technology Plan, Acceptable Use Policy for On-Line Services, and a Time and Learn- ing Plan were approved and adopted by the School Committee to further enhance the education and opportunities of staff and students. Cape Cod Tech was given a prestigious training award from Simmons College for the infusion of computers in the classroom. Community Education and Training Programs developed and managed funds derived from Grants, Tuition, and Fees, which were expended in services, equipment, and resources for the students of Cape Cod Tech and the youth and adult members of our sending towns. Cape Cod Tech has the distinction of being one of only seven Technical Academic Assess- ment Centers in Massachusetts offering services to students and adults in all public and private schools and agencies in Southeastern Massachusetts which include comprehensive vocational and academic assessments, learning style profiles, and academic and vocational instructional strate-

184 gies. Cape Cod Tech is also involved in a School-to-Careers Partnership for Cape Cod and the Islands. Several students were awarded gold medals in the VICA State Compe- titions and one student placed fourth in National Competition. On behalf of the School Committee, our twenty-first graduating class, and the students, faculty and staff of Cape Cod Tech, we thank you for your support of vocational technical education.

185 Computer Systems

This year's efforts were directed towards the completion of several innovative projects that had been deemed beneficial as part of our continued effort to bring to the Town a more effective use of information technology. One project was the Geographic Information System. This would support the Planning, Engineering and Assessor's departments with their analysis and collection of data relative to parcel and street information as well as demographic statistics. Presently the GIS program has been installed and the Planning department has begun to familiarize themselves with its abilities. The GIS application is complex in its initial design format and although they have given a considerable amount of time and effort, the turnover of staff and the time restraints on the existing staff adds to their already busy schedule. They look forward to further development and future uses. Also this year we acquired internet access and have been able to log onto the net and research material from numerous State Agencies. This has been beneficial in acquiring data pertaining to the Education Reform Act as well as Cherry Sheet figures. This on-line super highway has unlim- ited options and we will continue to explore them. The Legal Department now has the Massachusetts General Laws published by West Law on a CD-Rom and has been able to research decisions in a more expedient method. We hope in time to discontinue the purchase of the printed version and exclusively use the CD-Rom. I wish to thank the Board of Selectmen for their continued support and foresight in their drive and enthusiasm to upgrade the level of information technology within the town. I would also like to thank my fellow Department Heads and their staff for their cooperation and assistance.

186 Public Works Department

Your Public Works Department was committed to "the works" during 1996. Charged with providing the Town with a broad range of operational activities, the Department consists of the following municipal services: Cemetery, Highway and Grounds, Sanitation, Engineering and Municipal Buildings. The Superintendent administers and directs those aspects under the administrative direction of the Town Administrator and is directly responsible to the Board of Selectmen acting as a Board of Public Works. CEMETERY Perpetual care and maintenance services are provided to fourteen cemeteries under Town control, scattered throughout the five villages of Dennis. Dennis Village, Oak Ridge, South Dennis Congregational Church, Swan Lake Annex and West Dennis are five that remain open for inter- ments and require the most attention. A single crew leader with two seasonal laborers is responsible for this general maintenance. Throughout the course of the year, additional D.P.W. workers and equipment may be assigned to further assist. Grave openings, monumentation and plantings are the responsibility of the individual deed holders. Our office at 30 Access Road, South Dennis, provides the daily administration of the cemeteries including the maintenance of records and sale of deeds to right of burial. Information concerning the cemeteries can be obtained by contacting (508) 760-6220. In addition, a three member Cemetery Advisory Commission appointed by and directly responsible to the Board of Selectmen is charged with assisting the Department. Presently, the Commission is comprised of Harry DeStefano, Chairman, James Fair, Vice Chairman, and Lou Carrier. They meet regularly at posted open public meetings to review requests from deed holders regarding interpretation of the Rules and Regulations, pro- pose rules and regulations for implementation by the Board of Selectmen, assist in planning, recommend policy and provide general guidance on cemetery issues. The Department acknowledges the service of former Commission members Alton L. Robbins, Barry Robbins and William Marcin who stepped down at the end of 1996. Their involvement and efforts assisted in shaping the development of cemetery policy and procedures. The May, 1996 Annual Town Meeting provided $50,000.00 for the partial expansion of Oak Ridge Cemetery in South Dennis village. Oak Ridge is the newest Town cemetery, opening in September 1969. Its undeveloped acreage offers an opportunity to plan for the future cemetery needs well into the 21st century. A second Article established, effective July 1, 1996, a $350.00 fee for the right to burial within a single grave space. This one-time fee provides the Town with income to subsidize the care, maintenance and operation of all cemetery interests. Fees received are deposited

187 to cemetery dedicated accounts within the Town treasury and are available for cemetery-related expenditures via Town Meeting authorization. Unfortu- nately, fees received and interest income earned are inadequate to fund annual operating expenses. Innovative approaches continue to be explored to defray rising expenses. As the year closed, the Commission was explor- ing those possibilities. HIGHWAY and GROUNDS Staff involved within this area of service are responsible for the care and maintenance of Town-owned roads as well as limited maintenance of private roads open to public use, i.e. installation of drainage; installation and maintenance of traffic signals, controls, pavement markings and street name signs; refuse collection from municipal parks, grounds, landings and seasonal beaches; roadside vegetation control and maintenance; drainage maintenance, repair and cleaning; sweeping of roads, parking areas and sidewalk/bicycle paths; roadside litter control; asphalt repairs and paving. Also, grading and surface treatments of gravel roadways; tree trimming and removal; grounds care to all municipal properties including traffic islands, planters, memorials, municipal buildings, playgrounds and seasonal beaches; mechanical beach cleaning operations on a daily basis during the summer season; and snow and ice control services to all municipal properties and public roads exclusive of the State highways of Route 6, 6A and 28. The Department has fifteen full-time employees who handle the above- described tasks. They are complemented by sixteen seasonal workers. There are always more tasks for attention as the majority of departments within the government structure rely on our ability to be flexible and to assist them in their specialized service needs. Our inventory of heavy equipment, dump trucks and assorted equipment permits us to handle a myriad of light to medium construction-related projects. The 1995 Annual Town Meeting and election permitted an $825,000.00 appropriation for the Department to implement a two Fiscal Year Second- ary Road Improvement Program. During calendar year 1996, the following secondary roads received drainage improvements and bituminous concrete pavements: Dennisport - a portion of North Street, Depot Street to Tele- graph Road; a portion of Pleasant Street, Depot Street to Center Street; a portion of Depot Street, Route 28 southerly to Lower County Road; and Raycroft Park Way; West Dennis - a portion of Fisk Street, Loring Avenue to South Main Street; Ferry Street; and Uncle Freeman's Road; the stone chip sealing of a portion of Loring Avenue, Fisk Street to Buckley Road; South Dennis - the stone sealing of a portion of Center Street, Main Street to Route 134; a new wearing surface course on Pine Street; and Dennis - a portion of Beach Street, Whig Street to Black Flats Road; a portion of Nobscussett Road, Whig Street northerly to Shore Drive; and Howes Street. In addition, State Aid to Highways funds were utilized to rehabilitate, install drainage improvements and surface with bituminous concrete a portion of Scargo Hill Road, Dr. Stanton Road to Route 6A, and Airline Road, Route 6A to the 8rewster/Dennis Town Line. Additionally in conjunc-

188 tion with the Engineering Department, drainage improvements were undertaken on Shad Hole Road, Uncle John's Road, Lower County Road, Sea Street, Depot Street, Old Wharf Road, Old Bass River Road, Sesuit Neck Road, Setucket Road and Theophilus F. Smith Road. In support of the Beach Department, a variety of projects were undertaken. Most importantly was the continued nourishment of the bathing beach areas along West Dennis Beach. Some 10,000 cubic yards of dredged materials were obtained from private sources, hauled to the area and deposited on the areas above mean high water. The only cost to the Town was in-grading the material upon the beach. The rehabilitation of the wooden bulkhead at the Corporation Beach lower parking area was accomplished in conjunction with the Engineering Department staff and the carpentry and construction skills of Municipal Buildings. Other projects included the fabrication and installation of a new decorative fence along Glendon Beach, land clearing and rail fence installation on the entry way to Mayflower Beach, and continued dune reconstruction on Bayview Beach. Staff provided mechanical beach cleaning on all north and southside beaches; hand cleaning of beaches on Raycroft Park Way, Haigis Beach and Sea Street, Dennisport; twice daily collection of beachgoers' litter and refuse, and associated labor activities to make our beaches attractive to our residents and visitors. The Department was actively involved in the new landscaping plan at The Jericho House, assisting with a new lawn and decorative fence. Fur- ther, the assistance of Catherine McNamara, Joan Martin, Meredyth Wil- liams, Ann Chalmers and Mary Lou Tarbell in muddling through the restoration of this historic building and its contents after the August, 1995 fire was especially appreciated. Other Projects with various civic groups continued, notably the tree beautification project along Route 6A within the Den- nis business corridor, courtesy of a Cape Cod Commission grant and the hard-work of Diane Siddell and Carole Bell. The Southside Civic Associa- tion continued to work with the Department in revitalizing the Dennisport Village Green and Mike Stacy Playground. The Dennis Beautification Vol- unteers under the able green thumb of John Hayden and Everlyn Varrieur- Hayden continued to sprout new plantings throughout the southside. The Department valued the continued assistance of Marge McCormick in helping us be responsive to the various village garden clubs and the Senior Center landscape as well as the Johnny Kelley Braille Trail Project; Phyllis Horton and her committee members for their support in keeping up the Josiah Dennis Manse. The continued volunteerism and community partner- ing to accomplish mutually achievable goals within the Town of Dennis continues to bear fruit. As the year closed, staff prepared to continue implementation of several drainage installation projects in preparation for the 1997 construction season. It is hoped that the winter season will not mirror 1995-1996 which was a record breaker in terms of snowfall for the Town.

189 SANITATION The Disposal Area & Recycling Center handles the solid waste functions for the Town. 1996 saw the implementation of the unlined landfill capping project. This is the largest project in size and scope in the short history of the 1990 - created Department of Public Works. It involves the closure and capping of the sanitary landfill sited upon a 58.2 acre parcel adjacent to the Trans- fer Station. The Town employed SEA Consultants Inc., Cambridge, Mas- sachusetts, to provide professional solid waste engineering expertise in accomplishing the goals of this project. After much on-site research using our staff, an innovative plan was devised to reduce the size of the area requiring capping by recovering previously landfilled wood waste materials and by reclaiming portions of this material by processing. The end result will produce vegetative layer material that could be used to cover the capped landfill area. Essex Excavating Corporation, Johnston, Rhode Island, was the successful low bidder for the Phase IA project. Their work began in late February and concluded in early May. The results were the reduction of the unlined landfill area to approximately 40 acres and the production of sufficient vegetative layer material to cover the entire remaining 40-acre project. Phase IA was completed for $1,118,122. In August, Allstate Power-Vac Inc., Linden, New Jersey, was the successful low bidder for the Phase IB project and work was being completed as the year closed. Phase IB involved the capping of approximately seventeen acres in accordance with a negotiated Administrative Consent Order between the Common- wealth of Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection and the Town. The completion of Phase IB would permit the Town to continue to operate its remaining portion of the unlined landfill until October 15, 1998. In 1997, work will continue to prepare for the 1998 deadline. The Depart- ment is extremely pleased with the success of the first element of this major project and anticipates that a $1.0 million dollar reduction from the original cost estimate to close and cap the site has been achieved; additional savings are possible. The operation of the Disposal Area & Recycling Center is handled by a full-time staff of five employees and operates 295 days per calendar year. It provides a multitude of options for solid waste handling. Solid waste is delivered to the Transfer Station by commercial collectors operating inde- pendently, as well as residential users. Approximately 11,000 tons of solid waste are shipped to the SEMASS Partnership Waste-to-Energy Facility in Rochester, Massachusetts. This waste is loaded onto four 100-cubic yard transfer trailers and hauled by private vendor. Another 1,900 tons of mixed solid waste is delivered to the site and requires landfilling. More importantly, the Department maintains a highly successful recycling area that accepts corrugated cardboard, newsprint, natural and colored plastics, alu- minum and bimetal containers, glass, waste oil, aersol containers, nickel- cadmium and automotive batteries, white goods, used clothing, tires and scrap metal. Approximately 1,200 tons of these materials have been recycled. In 1996, a surplus paint collection program was instituted from April

190 through October, with paint being collected on the first Saturday of each month and made available to the public on the second Saturday of the same month as a recycled product. Staff member James J. Boudreau and his wife, Diane, (serving as a volunteer) ran this highly successful program and enabled the Town to avoid these items from becoming household hazardous wastes. A Reusable Building facilitates the recirculation of usable goods. Indi- viduals are permitted to drop off books, magazines, limited household items in working condition and other appropriate items. This building serves as another method in curtailing the costly disposal of goods that may still have value. Please see the Gatekeeper or Recycling Area staff member for questions about the appropriateness of items. A valuable leaf and yard waste composting area is provided and the soil boosting product is being used by the Town in producing the vegetative layer material for the capping project. The Disposal Area & Recycling Center are very user-dependent and your cooperation in actively taking the time to participate in our voluntary recycling program is vital to our ability to curb your tax dollars for solid waste. Public education is a continuing goal of the Department and the Recycling Commission plays a vital role in making this happen. Through their efforts, we have worked with the Ezra H. Baker Elementary School and the Nathaniel H. Wixon Middle School in designing the background for the vehicle passes used to gain access to the Disposal Area and Recycl- ing Center. Students' designs have been used for the initial and second vehicle passes in 1995 and 1996. The Department has also visited both schools and provided educational tours of the Recycling facility to the kindergarten, third and fifth grade classes during 1996. The students were interested in helping to be part of the solution to our solid waste problem; their enthusiasm as evidenced by their questions and their comments was most gratifying. OVERVIEW In 1997, the Department will continue working toward a number of important goals. The proposed reconstruction of Setucket Road is moving through its final design phase and it is hoped that the project will receive Federal funding under the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act. Design analysis is proceeding on the Loring Avenue culvert upgrade. The Annual Town Meeting of May, 1996 authorization to implement a Pavement Management System is underway and Vanasse Hangen Brustlin, Waltham, Massachusetts, is providing the professional services to the Town. Work will continue on the Secondary Road Improvement Project and Drainage Improvement Programs. Planning for the continuing landfill closure will move ahead and utilization of this land area will become an issue upon completion. The Department is fortunate to be staffed by a group of dedicated individuals who bring many varied talents to their work. Without their commitment to the tasks at hand these goals would not be able to be realized.

191 I wish to take this opportunity to recognize those staff members for those efforts. In closing, for their continued support and counsel, I extend my sincere appreciation to Stephen J. Lombard, Town Administrator, Marjarita Doherty, Assistant Town Administrator, and my fellow Department Heads who have assisted me in my duties during the past year. I have appreciated the opportunity to be of service to the taxpayers and citizens of the Town of Dennis. It has been a challenge.

192 Jericho Historical Center

Nineteen ninety-six was a year of transition for the Jericho Historical Center. After the fire of August 25, 1995, the house was restored, painted and wallpapered in time for the opening of the house for seasonal tours. Much of the unpacking and placement of furnishings could not have been accomplished without the help of the Friends of Jericho who now number twenty-five. The paintings of Josiah Fairbank and Sara Gullivar Fairbank that were damaged in the fire have been restored by Dr. Simon Coren and again hang in the Fairbank bedroom. On June 5th, twenty docents dressed in colonial garb welcomed 154 third graders from the Ezra Baker School. The children played colonial games, toured the house, barn and driftwood zoo, heard stories, saw slides of boys who went to sea long ago, and carried home molasses cookies baked in the shape of fish. Later in June, Jericho joined the West Dennis Garden Club in a fund raiser for the Club's scholarship fund. Guests toured a number of gardens ending the day with refreshments and a tour of the barn and newly reno- vated house. During July and August, the house, barn and driftwood zoo were open to the public on Wednesday and Friday afternoons from 2:00-4:00 p.m. Many visitors from different areas of the country were given tours by the members of the Friends of Jericho. During Festival Days in August, visitors enjoyed watching demonstra- tions of quilting, stenciling, rug hooking, knitting and chair caning on a Sunday afternoon. New plantings have been added to the Memorial Garden and a lovely flowering cherry tree was planted on the west side of the property in memory of Barbara Costa who was a Friend of Jericho. Additional fencing on the east side of the property has been installed. A thank you to the Friends of Jericho, the Town employees, Mr. Den- nis Hanson, Mr. Steve Estey and all who helped the Committee through a difficult year.

193 Committee on Disabilities

We were deeply saddened by the death of our Chairman, Paul Hannabury. He has been sorely missed. Those of us who came in contact with him will remember his gentle but efficient ways. Members have attended a Title III of the Americans Disability Act Training sponsored by the Massachusetts Office of Disability and co-sponsored by: The Falmouth Handicapped Compliance Commission, Cape Organization for Rights of the Disabled and New England Disability and Business Technical Assis- tance Center. We are happy to say that the Braille Trail at Johnny Kelley Park is near completion and should be ready for a Memorial Day opening. We would like to thank the numerous assistance we received from several organizations and people in the community (too numerous to list.) Proposed Goals and Objectives In order to fulfill the purpose of the Committee to advise the Town Selectmen on matters affecting the lives of the residents of the Town of Dennis who are disabled and on matters relative to accessibility laws and implementation, the Committee has established the following goals for 1997: A. Maintenance and updating of the Americans with Disabilities Act Plan. B. Serve as educational and informational resource for relevant legal issues. C. Sensitize community to need for and benefit of service and program accessibility. D. Complete Braille Trail in Johnny Kelley Park. E. Upgrade local playground facilities, to make them more accessible to handicapped children.

The Committee appreciates the ongoing guidance and advice of our Assistant Town Administrator, Marjarita Doherty.

194 Old Kings Highway Regional Historic District Committee

The Dennis Committee of the Old King's Highway Regional Historic District Commission looks back on a year of changes and challenges. In 1996, 411 applications were received for Certificates of Appropriate- ness and Exemptions. Eight of these were denied, three appealed. One appeal was resolved in favor of the Dennis Committee and two were re- manded back and resolved. Our goals in addition to improved communication with the public, have been serious review and upgrading of signage on Route 6A and fine tuning approvals in sensitive historic areas. We have also acquired a small library of reference books which has been helpful to individual members of the committee in making some judgements, as well as to applicants. We applaud and appreciate the Selectmen's decision that Linda McNeill's position be made full-time Historic, a job at which she is superb. We will miss Seth Crowell who has done an outstanding job and we welcome Paul San Clemente who joins us. We also wish to thank Chuck DeLuga for his architectural advice, and Elizabeth Wilcox our excellent alternate. In the year ahead, we hope to continue to improve our judgements and to preserve all that is good and historic in the beautiful Town of Dennis.

195 Board of Assessors

This past year the Board of Assessors has been preparing for the implementation of a new computer system and new appraisal software for the fiscal year 1998. Funds were appropriated at a previous Town meeting for the implementation of a GIS System. We are hopeful that we can integrate our system with the GIS System, and provide to the public the capability of opening town records by direct access from a computer terminal in the Town office building. Board member Carol Mitchell has been attending an Assessing course at the Department of Revenue in Boston. This is a ten week course, and is mandated for all assessors. Our other remaining board members, Cleon Turner and Alice Tuttle, have successfully completed the prescribed courses. Two staff members in the Assessing Department have successfully completed the property tax law and assessment administration courses at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst this past August. This course was also sponsored by the Department of Revenue. All applications for abatement must be filed (30) thirty days from the mailing of the actual tax bill. Statutory exemptions must be filed within (3) three months of the mailing of the tax bills. If a taxpayer feels that they may be eligible to receive an exemption, and that they may qualify and meet the income requirements, they may call or stop by the the Assessing Department to inquire. Printed information is also available. Classification of Properties for the Fiscal Year 1997

196 Historical Commission

The most significant accomplishment of the Commission this past year was completion of the project of identifying and honoring the men from Dennis who died in the service of their country during World War II. Four men had been honored with a memorial plaque previously. Six more were identified and a plaque was dedicated in their memory at the conclusion of the ceremony held in conjunction with the Memorial Day Parade. The families of all six were contacted and representatives of four of the families were able to attend. Our thanks go to the Department of Public Works, the parade committee, Richard Tobin and Paul Prue for their help in bringing this objective to conclusion. Commissioners have once again cooperated with the schools in providing assistance with historical research for the projects selected by students. Visits were made to the Ezra H. Baker school classrooms and Com- missioners met with any students requesting help at the Pauline Wixon Derick Library of the Josiah Dennis Manse to answer questions and direct them to sources of information. One such project resulted in some research on the part of the Commission. A third grader requested information about Hokum Rock and although we were able to relate the two theories about the origin of the name of the rock, we found no geological information. We therefore asked H. A. Wiper, Jr., a member of the Conservation Commission, if he would survey the rock for us and write a report, which he has done. The Commission continues to research and document houses. We are preparing an application to place the West Dennis Community Building on the National Register of Historic Places, and continue to work with the South Dennis Historic District Commission to perfect and document the information on all buildings within that district, preparatory to submitting a nomination of that District to the National Register as well.

197 The Memorial Day Observance Committee

The 1996 observance of Memorial Day was the culmination of eight committee meetings and good weather conditions. The marchers included a number of new groups who participated in the well attended parade in Dennisport, and Brig. Gen. Geoffrey Cheadle, USAF, Ret., was the Parade Marshall. Col. Walter Burr, USA, Ret., was the principal speaker. The formation of the parade on Center Street, the route of the march on Route 28 and the speaking program at the Dennisport Village Green was enhanced by the cooperation of the Police, Fire and Public Works Departments. The observance of Memorial Day will be continued by the committee to remember those Americans who gave their lives for their country and those veterans who have passed on since the last Memorial Day.

198 Recreation Commission

In 1996 we welcomed our newest commission member, Joe Fruggiero, a former member of the Community/Recreation Building Study Committee. Although we had only one opening on the commission, we had two extremely qualified candidates. Therefore, Tony Marvullo was accepted as a non-voting associate member. Both men are involved in our youth sports leagues and we appreciate their efforts and input. Our Dennis Road Race was once again a great success and continues to grow every year. In 1997 we look forward to the 20th annual race. It is one of the oldest road races on Cape Cod, and has become a favorite event for local runners and visitors alike. At the May Town Meeting we were appropriated five thousand dollars to fund the start-up of the Recreation Department sponsored youth basket- ball league. The attendance at tryouts was outstanding. We have a dedicated group of coaches and the league is off to a great start. Also, our Summer Recreation Program was restructured to provide more activities for the older groups. Thanks to the efforts of Recreation Director Mike Favreau and his staff, all of the summer programs were very successful. One of the most significant developments of 1996 was the renewed discussions concerning the proposed Community/Recreation Building. Rarely, if ever, has there been a project that would have a more positive impact on the quality of life of Dennis residents of all ages. In 1997 we will continue to advocate the need for such a facility and we welcome the support and comments from the community.

199 Beach Committee

1996 was a good year for the Dennis Beach Department. Although the weather did not cooperate, we did not have any major storms or erosion. Beach Revenue was down. We had 14 rain days and one less weekend because of an early Labor Day. The Beach Department had very few complaints as to the cleanliness of our beaches. Thanks to the efforts of Dennis Hanson and the workers at DPW. Municipal Building staff has modified lifeguard towers by adding roofs to protect our lifeguards from the sun. They also built three more gate attendant booths. We are looking forward to implementing the Adopt-A-Beach Program, thanks in a large part to the efforts of Carolyn Banks, Steve Swidler, and the support of the Beach Committee and Town Hall staff. We are, as money allows, completing some of our priorities. We have better equipment, better supervision, and the friendly ear of the Selectmen. There is a lot more to be done and our concerns remain as follows: a breakthrough on West Dennis Beach; to continue black topping the parking lot at West Dennis Beach; erosion in general on all beaches; to finish rebuilding the bulkhead at Corporation Beach; and to remove pipes from groundwater at Glendon Road. Money for many of these projects has already been appropriated. We owe a debt of gratitude to the Police Department for assisting in our new ticketing policy. They also helped with some parking problems. The Fire Department assisted at the Orientation Program for summer staff. The Beach Department awarded $200 scholarships to lifeguards, Mi- chelle Mashoke and Hanna Snyder for outstanding performance during the summer. The Beach Department also hosted an extremely successful Life- guard Competition at West Dennis Beach for Cape and off Cape towns. The annual Sandsculpture Contest held during Festival Days provided a fun day for families and individuals. Your Committee is looking forward to a great beach season in 1997.

200 Friends of Dennis Senior Citizens, Inc.

The Friends of Dennis Senior Citizens continue their work in the community as a charitable organization that supports and promotes activities for the benefit and general welfare of senior citizens. People helping people is perhaps the best and simplest way of defining the FRIENDS. The Board of Directors remains committed to this task and has a good feeling about being involved in attempting to improve the quality of life of seniors in Dennis. The FRIENDS work closely with the Council on Aging in assisting elderly persons whose emergency financial needs are not otherwise funded. Many special programs, activities and travel opportunities are organized during the year to carry out our mission. Income is primarily derived from our Arts and Crafts Fair, Flea Market, Spring and Fall Golf Tournaments, travel opportunities and membership dues. In addition to assisting individuals, the organization carries out an extensive planned giving program including Holiday Giving, Cape Cod Hospital Oncology Unit, Cape Cod Hos- pital Radiation Unit, Visiting Nurses, Hospice of Cape Cod, Elder Services of Cape Cod and the Council on Aging. The FRIENDS continue to look forward to being responsive to the needs of the many seniors in Dennis. The support of the Town of Dennis and its citizens is much appreciated!

201 Henry C. Boles Achievement Award

The Henry C. Boles Achievement Award Committee is named in honor of the late Selectman Henry C. Boles who served from 1973-77 and whose leadership and extensive personal contribution to Town programs was largely responsible for Dennis winning recognition in 1978 as an All-Ameri- can Town. Mr. Boles set a high standard of excellence for citizen participation in Town government. He died in 1979. The Committee has unanimously decided that citizenship begins at an early age and by encouraging our young residents, we would appropriately be honoring the memory of Henry C. Boles. The Committee also decided to award a $50 U. S. Savings Bond to one young man and young woman graduating from Ezra Baker School, Wixon Middle School, and one Dennis student attending a private school and graduating from the highest elementary grade. At the May, 1996 Annual Town Meeting the Committee presented a $50 U. S. Savings Bond to: Brooke Sullivan and Evan Bianco, Ezra Baker School Kelli A. Nielson and Kenneth Lewis, Wixon Middle School Sarah Waldo, Cape Cod Academy

202 South Dennis Historic District Commission

The South Dennis Historic District Commission acted upon 36 applications for a Certificate of Appropriateness in 1996 with 33 approvals and 3 denials. All applications, whether for smaller projects (fences, sheds, shutters) to larger projects (new construction) received the same exacting attention to detail essential to upholding the architectural integrity of the District as a whole. The District has been hailed and praised in many media outlets, the highest-ranking historic preservation officers and organizations in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, residents and visitors alike; it has been faithful to its original 1974 charge to "develop and maintain appropriate settings and appearance as a landmark compatible with the historic, cultural and literary tradition of the Town of Dennis and as a reminder of old South Dennis as it existed in the early days of Cape Cod." As we approach the year 2000, we are frequently asked how the District has retained its unique character and integrity, as many other villages and towns struggle to either retain their rapidly diminishing character, or as they subsequently set about to restore, reclaim or regain their lost sense of character and place. The answer to that quandry, in a word, is simply "integrity". In our view, Historic Districts are either maintained or lost "architectural element by architectural element, one case at a time, over a long period of time". Importantly, small - seemingly insignificant changes - have, and will continue to have, an insidious cumula- tive effect on the character of a village or town. Each accommo- dation allows and encourages a successive one, ultimately has- tening the decline of an area's integrity, landscape and character. The price we pay is estrangement from the place we call home. That the South Dennis Historic District has its integrity and sense of place intact is a record and legacy of which every townsperson can be proud. Highlights of the year include an amendment to the District's By-Laws providing for an Alternate Member on the Commission, and a presentation to the Selectmen of a gift of framed prints and legend key of "A Prospect of the Village of South Dennis, Circa 1893," by the SDHDC. As we enter 1997, we accept, with regret, the resignation of Gail A. Hart, a Commission member since 1990. Long an active leader in the Town's historic organizations, civic groups and village preservation, her dedication to this Commission's work will be missed. Finally, we acknowledge with grateful thanks, the efforts of El- bert C. Ulshoeffer, Jr., Building Commissioner and Linda McNeill, Commission Secretary, for their consummately professional services

203 on our behalf throughout the entire year. We are fortunate in having the services of both.

204 Golf Department

The year 1996 saw the beginning of many changes within the Golf Department. We started the season with a new automated tee time reser- vation system. By summer most of the problems had been worked out. With spring came improvement in the greens at Dennis Pines. By summer they were all filled in again, and they remained that way throughout the year. We also began exploration for a new water source for Dennis Pines' irrigation needs. At this time we are still dealing with water quality in the new sites. This fall we began working with a golf course architectural firm in the creation of a masterplan for improvements at both golf courses. This will be a guide to us as we plan for future improvements. Play continued to set new records during the summer, although rain caused play to decline somewhat during the fall. Membership increased greatly this year, reaching an all time high of 1626 members. This has made it increasingly difficult to meet tee time expectations of member and guest alike. In addition to the projects mentioned above, capital items purchased this year included two triplex greens mowers, a triplex tee mower, 4 walk- behind greens mowers, a 4WD dump truck, and a 72" rotary mower.

205 Golf Advisory Committee

The taxpayers of Dennis can continue to be proud of the two beautiful golf courses that provide aesthetic beauty, recreation, and economic gain to the Town. Mr. Dennis Penner and his staff deserve credit for maintaining a productive operation under very hectic and tenuous circumstances. Of major note this year was the re-establishing of the greens at Dennis Pines. Thanks to Mr. Mark McCarthy and his staff for instituting a successful maintenance program that has and will continue to provide the golfer with a positive experience. Under the direction of Mr. Scott Smith and the effort of his able staff, Dennis Highlands matures and reaches new heights. Complimenting the general maintenance of the courses is the impressive floral landscaping of Mr. Jack Seaver. All efforts have combined to present the public with two varied and enjoyable championship golf courses. The yeoman efforts of the staff not only improved conditions but also kept the courses playable throughout a generally wet season. The result being another positive economic year and a sizable return to the Town's General Fund. The Golf Advisory Committee addressed a number of issues this year. The automated tee time system is continually being assessed, and modifications are being made in order to address concerns. Town Meeting allocated funds for the development of an architectural master plan for improvement of both courses. A committee has been established, an architect has been hired, and the process is in full swing. Member participation at the GAC monthly meetings has increased, and members have provided valuable input to the committee. The GAC encourages members to attend meetings in order to voice concerns and/or plea- sures and to develop an understanding of the committee's function.

206 Recycling Commission

In May, in conjunction with the Dennis Junior Women's Club, the Re- cycling Commission participated in the 6th Annual Recycling Awareness Week. This was a curbside pick-up of recyclables. Since the Recycling Commission's primary function is education, (get- ting facts of recycling to the general public) through the cooperation of the staff at Ezra H. Baker School, an art contest was held during the fall months for the design of the Town of Dennis Disposal Area & Recycling Center vehicle passes. The winners were: Nathanael Carey, design to be on the 1997-1998 Initial Vehicle pass and Matthew Livingstone, design to be on the 1997-1998 Second Vehicle pass. Congratulations to them. The art contest was a success through the efforts of Mrs. Collins, the Recycling Commission School Coordinator; Mrs. Susan Sargent, DPW secretary, Mr. Kevin F. Depin, Principal, and the Second and Third Grade Teachers. The Recycling Commission would like to thank the judges: Mrs. Paul Hannabury, Mrs. George McClellan, and Mr. Winfield Kimball for their kind- ness in taking the time to select the winners of the competition. On April 6, 1996 the Town of Dennis Disposal Area began the recycling of unused paint. The unused paint was deposited at the Reclaimable Building. The staff sorted the paints, according to instructions of the Mas- sachusetts Department of Environmental Protection, and made the excess paints available for the citizens of the Town of Dennis. The collection of recyclable material has been very successful this last year, but the values derived from disposing of the recyclable materials was diminished. We wish to thank the citizens of Dennis for being so coopera- tive in their recycling efforts. Respectfully submitted, Robert Koscso, Chairman Joyce Collins Allan Cole James Boudreau, (liaison)

207 Waterways Commission

The Waterways Commission recommended establishing two fees for electric use at Sesuit Harbor. The fee for "High Usage" electricity will be $150. The "Low Usage" fee will be $50. The Sesuit mooring fees will change to a $100 minimum for boats up to 16 feet plus $5 for each additional foot. These fees were approved at the December 10th Special Town Meeting. The Waterways Commission also recommended to establish a mooring basin in Bass River at the end of West Dennis Beach and in the future investigate developing that mooring area into a 200 slip marina. The wooden ramp at the mouth of Swan River was removed for safety and navigational reasons. Initial efforts were started by the Engineering Department to replace the Loring Avenue culvert with a bridge. The engineering work has been started. Engineering is also in progress for the dredging of Bass River. This includes the aforementioned mooring basin. Dredging of Bass River may possibly be started prior to the 1998 summer boating season. This project will be phased over a 10 year span. The Army Corps of Engineers returned last June with the Currituck to dredge the entrance channel to Sesuit Harbor. The Conservation Department received funding for the dredging of Swan Pond River. The dredging of the entrance to Swan Pond River was done by the Barnstable County Dredge, which was christened "Cod Fish" in September. Dredging should be completed by the end of 1996. Using the dredge will reduce the cost to Dennis for this and future dredging projects. The Waterways Commission extends sincere thanks to Harbormaster Edward Goggin and to Carol Perry for their support during the past year.

208 Human Services Advisory Committee

In Fiscal Year 1997 the Town, through the Human Services Advisory Committee, awarded $31,735 to area human service agencies. This amount was slightly lower than the previous year. Twelve agencies applied for and received funding, including: Nauset, Inc. $ 3,600 Cape Cod Child Development 4,635 Cape Cod Human Services 3,000 Cape Cod Council on Alcoholism 1,000 Consumer Assistance Council 350 Elder Services 4,500 Independence House 4,700 Sight Loss Services 1,800 Legal Services 2,200 Family Pantry 2,200 Cape Cod AIDS Council 2,750 Big Brothers/Big Sisters 1,000 TOTAL $ 31,735

The Committee evaluates each application on the basis of need and perceived benefit to the residents of the Town. Applicants are asked to quantify these benefits in their proposals and the information provided is evaluated against the previous year's service. We also meet personally with representatives from the agencies we fund. In FY 97 the Committee met with representatives of Cape Cod Human Services, Independence House, Legal Services of Cape Cod and the Islands and Consumer Assis- tance Council. These meetings allow us to learn about the organizations we support and to learn from them about the future needs of our residents. We will be looking for new members to fill openings on the Committee.

209 Town Planner - Planning & Appeals Office

1996 proved to be another busy year for the Planning and Appeals Office. The office handled all the staff work for the Planning and Appeals Boards. The Planning Board held 23 regular meetings and 21 work sessions. Please refer to the Planning Board Report for a breakdown of the applications. The Planning Board also held extra meetings to continue their review of the Zoning By-Law. The Zoning Board held 18 regular meetings for a total of 61 public hearings. It is the Planning and Appeals office that is responsible for distributing the application forms and for providing the necessary background information and specifics that the applicant will need to appear before the board(s). We are also responsible for preparing the legal notices, posting meetings, preparing agendas, preparing informational packets for the board members, preparing and maintaining the files for each case, coordinating input from other departments and agencies, notification to abutters and other appropriate agencies, attending and preparing minutes of meetings and completing any and all finalization work. This work would not have been possible without the valued assistance of former Office Assistant, Rex Peterson, who in November, left the employment of the Town of Dennis to take a position with Provincetown. We wish him well in his future endeavors. As mentioned, the Planning Board held extra meetings for the review of the Dennis Zoning By-Law. As the Planner, it was my responsibility to review each and every By-Law, research examples of other By-Laws, make recommendations for changes, keep track of the many changes and present these changes in the form of an article(s) for Town Meeting. At the May Town Meeting the Board presented changes to Sections 1, 3, 5 and a portion of 2. However, only Section 3 was acted upon and approved by the Town Meeting. Sections 1 and 5 and the portion of Section 2 were indefinitely postponed by motion of the Planning Board. The Planning Board's review continued through the summer and fall and at the December Spe- cial Town Meeting the Board brought forward a complete rewrite of Section 1. This proposed amendment was approved by the Town Meeting. As Town Planner I also serve as the Staff Advisor to the Local Plan- ning and Economics Development Committees (LPC and EDC). I prepare agendas and background information for meetings, attend all meetings and prepare minutes. In 1996 there where 12 EDC meetings. This year the EDC was successful at the May Annual Town Meeting in securing $50,000 for the surveying and appraisal work of 72 acres of land-locked property located south of Route 6, north of the town landfill and west of the Harwich Town Line. The EDC will look at potential uses for this property. The EDC also completed the "Dennis Business Guide". This guide is intended to assist persons who are interested in establishing a business in the Town of

210 Dennis. The Guide, endorsed by the Selectmen in December, will be available in early 1996. There were a total of 17 LPC meetings, including three public meetings for the preparation of the Economic Development portion of the Local Comprehensive Plan (LCP). In addition I attended 19 task group meetings for the LCP. In late winter the LPC, with the assistance of Tana Watt, Planner with the Cape Cod Commission, prepared a brochure on the LPC and the LCP. Sean Ghio, Consultant Planning Aide, continued his work on the LCP. Mr. Ghio was instrumental in the preparation of the Economic Development portion of the LCP which was presented to the Selectmen in December. The Board of Selectmen unanimously endorsed this portion of the LCP. Unfortunately, Mr. Ghio will no longer be working as a Consul- tant. However, he hasn't gone too far in that he has taken the position formerly held by Mr. Peterson as the Planning and Appeals Office Assis- tant. I know Mr. Ghio will do well, and I thank him for his work thus far. Several other projects were also worked on this past year. Work continued on the Monomoy Capacity Study. Eleven meetings were held between December 1995 and June 1996 to work on the Study. The Study, completed in July, contains a build-out capacity and analysis of Dennis, Brewster, Harwich, Orleans and Chatham, and its relationship to natural resources, water resources, transportation and fiscal impacts. The results of this study will be vital to the LCP. I also completed the 1996 Community Action Statement for the Town of Dennis. This document must be completed if the Town wants to apply for grants through the Mass. Executive Offices of Community Development. The Planning and Appeals Office also became the proud recipients of a Geographic Information System (GIS). Although we have had problems with loading some of the data, and we do not currently have the personnel to operate the system, we hope to utilize it to its full potential sometime in the future.

211 Planning Board

The Planning Board has seven members and is currently functioning with all seats filled. In general, the Board meets on the first and third Wednesdays for work sessions in preparation for meetings on the second and fourth Mondays, at which time public hearings are held and other business is conducted. The public is encouraged to attend and to participate. The Planning Board has been busy this past year. Aside from the many applications acted upon, the Board also continued its review of the Dennis Zoning By-Law and the Town of Dennis Rules and Regulations. In May the Board brought to the Annual Town Meeting proposed changes to Sections 1, 3, 5 and 2.2.2 of the Zoning By-Law. The proposed amendments to Section 3 were approved by the Annual Town Meeting, while the remaining sections were indefinitely postponed on motions from the Planning Board. The Board felt, after discussing them with other Town agencies, that additional review was needed. At the December Special Town Meeting the Board presented changes to Section 1 of the Zoning By-Law. The amendments were approved by the Town Meeting. The Board will continue with its review. In early January of 1997 the Board will be holding a public hearing on a complete rewrite of the Subdivision Rules and Regulations. The Board wishes to thank the Town Planner, Charleen Greenhalgh and the Planning Staff for their continued cooperation and professional support during the past year. It is appreciated.

212 Conservation Commission

The Conservation Commission held 53 hearings this year under authority of state and local environmental laws. Controversial cases this year included approval of a restaurant and miniature golf course on property adjacent to the Bass River Bridge. Our approval was appealed to the De- partment of Environmental Protection at the state level and to Superior Court under our local By-Law. Massachusetts has implemented a new Rivers Protection Act which will have significant consequences for our Town. Jurisdiction has been increased from 100 to 200 feet and applicants must demonstrate that there are no practicable alternatives and no significant adverse impacts on any river-front area. The mouth of Swan River was dredged this past year as part of a major effort to improve water quality in the river. The Commission wishes to thank Mrs. Virginia Thomason for allowing the use of her vacant lot as a disposal site for a portion of the dredged material, thus saving the Town much money in hauling costs. The Commission approved a fifteen year conservation restriction for five acres of land on Bass River and a ten year restriction for 2 acres off Funn Pond Rd. The Restriction Program offers property owners reduced taxes in return for a legal agreement which preserves the property as open space for ten years or more. Call the Conservation office for details. A record number of four-wheel drive permits were sold. Chapin Beach was closed to off-road vehicles for a time due to nesting piping plovers and drivers should be aware that this could happen again in future years. The blueberry patch opened early in August and once again we thank Kay Willsey and her wonderful group who staff the patch.

213 Department of Veterans' Services

We continue to help needy veterans with financial aid and assistance in obtaining more permanent benefits from various local, state and federal programs such as Veterans' Affairs, Social Security Income, Veterans' Benefits and Fuel Assistance. We have expanded our programs to counsel veterans in employment training, financial planning and substance abuse. In the Town of Dennis we handled approximately 2,081 veterans' cases and have obtained over $1,900,000 in Federal cash benefits. We encourage any veteran or dependent of a veteran to contact our office at 1-800-439-6362 or 508-790-6363 to inquire about their benefits.

214 Harbormaster

The following is a list of undertakings by the Harbormaster's Depart- ment for 1996: Cape Cod Tech completed the barn on the west side of Sesuit Harbor and the new portable bathrooms on the east side. Sesuit Harbor entrance channel was dredged by the Army Corps of Engineers special purpose dredge in June. The Department of Environmental Management has contracted with an engineering firm to engineer and license the dredging of Bass River from just north of the Route 28 bridge to deep water, Nantucket Sound. This will include a mooring basin at the end of West Dennis Beach and a mooring basin off Uncle Freeman's Landing. The dredging will be phased in over a 10 year period. Approximately, 170,000 cubic yards of material will be dredged. The Harbormaster's Department continues to do maintenance at various landings and facilities on Bass River and at Sesuit Harbor. The Town of Dennis Waterways Department received an additional grant from the State for $30,000 to provide Pump-out and Porta-potty Dump Stations at various locations. The Harbormaster's Department estimates that approximately 4500 gallons of sewage was removed during the season. Thanks to all boaters for helping to keep our waters clean.

215 Council on Aging

The Council on Aging has experienced a very active year with an increase in programs and participation. Our secretary of 10 years, Mary Dumas, retired December 15, 1996. We wish her many happy days ahead! Dorothy Whitehouse, a very qualified and personable young lady has taken Mary's place. We are delighted to have Dorothy with us. New programs for "96" included: expansion of Widow & Widowers activities with services from the Widowed Persons Services of Cape Cod. New classes were: Italian language class, intermediate bridge, model ship building, actors workshop, square dancing classes, "Young at Heart" exercise from Cape Cod Hospital with a follow-up maintenance class by the YMCA, a new foot care and manicure program, and last but not least, the very successful "Feast of Opera" classes. Special events included: Annual Spring & Christmas Open House, An- nual Picnic at Campers Haven, horticultural, medical and financial lectures. Live shows were "Elaine Chase Show", "Dick Martin Show", "Lincoln Cen- ter Comes to the Cape", "Ginny Loring Song and Dance Show", "Grandpar- ents and Grandchildren's Ice Cream Social and Clown Show", and "Helen Halpins' Christmas Show." Also presented was an English Tea for volunteers and monthly dances with the Foxtrotters. Our first intergenerational community show took place in April and May and both shows were sold out. A sincere thank you goes to the many dedicated volunteers who help run our Senior Center and programs. They are most important to us. The average yearly total volunteer contribution is approximately 13,917 hours. Bless you all! A special thanks to the Friends of Dennis Senior Citizens, Inc. for financial and moral support. Also thanks to Paula Dolan-Pare, Director; Randi Cherchiglia, Outreach Coordinator; Dorothy Whitehouse, Secretary; Vicki Carroll, Transportation; Ed Willey and David Goodridge who make up our custodial staff; Marjarita Doherty, our mentor at Town Hall; and especially to our Council on Aging Board Members who all helped to make this year a success.

216 Josiah Dennis Manse

Approximately 1400 people toured the 1736 Josiah Dennis Manse this year, learning the history of Dennis and taking part in our many programs. In January the Dennis Historical Society held a "Dining for DHS" at the Manse to raise money for the restoration and preservation of artifacts at both the Manse and Jericho. Hopefully this will be an annual event. Nancy Howes and her group of volunteers once again presented the third grade school program to Ezra Baker and Trinity school students. This program has been on-going for over twenty years and is a model for a number of other Cape Historical Society school programs. The Manse hosted many interpretive programs this year and we were pleased to welcome visitors from many other countries including quite a few from Argentina, Germany and England. We participated in Maritime Week on May 19. On June 22 we presented Colonial Games at the Manse as part of the annual Heritage Cape Cod. Over 100 visitors joined the costumed guides in trying their hand at hoop rolling, top spinning and many other forms of Colonial enjoyment. Then in August we were over- whelmed by over 400 guests who joined in our Dennis Festival Days celebration at the Manse and took a trip back in time to the 1700's. They enjoyed sampling colonial type foods, games, work and education. The Falmouth Militia, sponsored by the Dennis Chamber of Commerce, added to the colonial feeling with their muster and drills. The annual Dennis Vil- lage Garden Club Flower Show was well attended by over 200 people and in October we had 18 visitors from Sussex, England and 150 from the Howes Family Reunion held this year in Dennis. These descendants of Thomas and Mary Howes, two of our original settlers in 1639 were thrilled with the family artifacts displayed at the Manse. On December 8 we were part of a house tour to benefit the Friends of String Students and welcomed over 300 people to the festively decorated Manse. The large holly tree next to the house was damaged in a winter storm and must come down as it is too near the house. A replacement tree was planted in November in memory of Chester Twiss, husband of board member Jean Twiss. Richard Howes and John Burton vented the cellar to reduce the excessive moisture. A first aid kit was presented to the Manse by the Dennis Fire Department. A cap was placed on the school house chim- ney to keep the rain out and the Dennis voters approved of a much needed roof for the Manse at the December Special Town Meeting. The Department of Public Works did a great job keeping our grounds in good order and we are grateful. Long time board member Hope Crowell Hallet resigned this year and we will miss her. Hundreds of volunteer hours are given by a dedicated group of people to keep this grand old house and everything in it clean and repaired and to present the special programs to our visitors. My sincere thanks to everyone who helped. Respectfully submitted, Phyllis Horton, Chairman

217 Health Department

As the department's resources continue to be consumed by the revised Title 5, the remaining regulatory arenas of the department were re- evaluated. This process proved to be of a challenging nature, as the private sector has been accustomed to specific inspection and directional processes from this office. Although the revised Title 5 code has been in existence for well over a year, the additional work and documentation that has accompanied the changes will be with this department infinitely. The code has increased the documentation, review, and enforcement from within the certified inspection report. Real Estate transactions are currently required to contain these additional documents, resulting in the interpretation of such information to be inconsistent. The department encourages the public and prospective buy- ers to call and discuss the contents of these reports with the Director or Inspector in order to assist in the education and clarification of such information. The state, as well as the office, has witnessed an influx in the outbreak of food borne illnesses and related food complaints, resulting in the inspection process being placed under a higher priority. Health Inspector Jennifer Joyal has created an "Order to Correct Violations" document that has proven to be most influential in expediting the correction of violations within this regulatory code. This record is also beneficial for the restaurant establishments, as it may avoid a publicized Board of Health meeting. In addition, the department has begun to regulate soft-serve ice cream facilities to the extent of requiring these establishments to submit a laboratory analysis report on a monthly basis. This year initiated the re-organization of the rental housing program. The Board of Health's agendas will continue to include properties that are constantly in violation of the Minimum Standards for Human Habitation. The results of these meetings have proven to have decreased the number of repeat violators. Labor Day weekend brought Hurricane Edouard and the opening of an emergency shelter at the Wixon School. The Health Department continues to play an integral role in the operations of the shelters. On November 8, 1996, the office experienced an isolated case of bac- terial meningitis at the Ezra Baker School. I would like to commend Princi- pal Kevin Depin and School Nurse Francine Searles for their sincere dedication and cooperation with this department. I would like to extend a word of thanks to the Board of Health for their continued support within a particularly difficult year. My staff continues to rise well above the call of duty and I would like to applaud Noreen Lopes, Betsy Dauzier, Laurie Newman, Connie Philleo, and Jennifer Joyal for a job well done.

219 Board of Health

The Board of Health consists of five {5) members appointed to a three (3) year term by the Board of Selectmen. The Board is responsible for the Health Department. The Board's jurisdiction includes inspection and approval of septic systems, restaurants and compliance with the Town's Housing By-Laws and Regulations. The Board also issues numerous licenses, ranging from animal licenses to septic installers and septic haul- ers, as well as various business licenses, such as tanning beds and booths, massage practitioners, food service permits and common victualler licenses. Virtually, every establishment which sells or serves food or food products in the Town comes within the Board's jurisdiction. This year, the Selectmen appointed and the Board welcomed Barbara Bird to the Board. Mrs. Bird has a nursing background and her input into the various public health issues confronting the Board will be of value. The Board and Department kept busy with hearings for requests for variance from Title 5, the State minimum standards for subsurface disposal of sewerage. Also, the Board held numerous show-cause hearings to correct housing code violations and to enforce the Town Housing and Rental Permit By-Laws. The Board is pleased to report that only one public hearing was conducted for restaurant violations. This is a result of the Department's continuing effort to educate restaurant owners and operators regarding safe food handling procedures and the requirements of the sanitary code, as it applies to food service establishments. The Board would like to express its appreciation to the Selectmen and Town Administrator for their support and assistance. Finally, the Board also thanks Health Director Tanya Daigneault, Agents Connie Philleo and Jen- nifer Joyal and Staff Noreen Lopes, Elizabeth Dauzier and Laurie New- man. The Board and the Town are fortunate to have these dedicated and hardworking employees.

SHELLFISH PERMITS IN EFFECT FOR 1996 Household Resident/Taxpayer 456 Resident Over 70 years of age 165 Non-Resident 6 Commercial 38 Other Fish Weir 5 Aquaculture License 1

INFORMATION The cold and snowy first part of 1996 was the precursor to the wettest year in Town records. Over sixty-nine (69) inches of precipitation fell this year. This has a direct negative result on the quantity of shellfish harvested, especially with respect to commercial soft shell clamming. The Division of Marine Fisheries has completed the Sanitary Survey for our south coast and has classified the waters as approved. Shellfish may be harvested in all of Nantucket Sound except during the time from June 1st to October 31st along a strip measuring from shore one hundred (100) yards out, then from Lighthouse Inn Road to the Harwich line. A master plan for aquaculture leases has been devised for an area off Crowes Pasture, thus streamlining an avenue for residents interested in growing their own shellfish. Further, we are looking into a similar plan for Nantucket Sound. As this is being written the dredging or final phase of the Swan River Stabilization Project, which was started in 1982, is underway and will con- clude in early 1997. As Town representatives, Carl Howard and Gerald Bojanowski participated in a Hard Clam Farmer Training Program at Woods Hole providing

221 fishermen a new avenue for education in aquaculture. As a part of this program we have caged in Bass River 20,000 seed quahogs. The department planted 400 bushels of adult stock quahogs into Grand Cove, Bass River. Also, Bass River has experienced a remarkable natural set of quahogs. I would like to thank the Cape Cod Salties and JTEC for their work in cleaning out the Bound Brook herring run and Sesuit Creek. This department was awarded a National Fish and Wildlife Foundation grant for the construction of a lake level control device for Sesuit Creek at the exit of Scargo Lake.

Respectfully submitted, Alan S. Marcy, Shellfish Constable

222 Shellfish Commission

The Commission held 6 meetings during 1996. The Commission would like to thank the Board of Selectmen for taking our recommendation and returning the recreational harvest limit of quahogs to ten quarts. The Com- mission approved four late commercial shellfish license applications with a restriction that they only harvest Blue Mussels in deep waters of Cape Cod Bay. Work on the stabilization of the mouth of Swan River will be completed during the month of December or early 1997. Both the Towns of Dennis and Yarmouth are anxiously awaiting the final map from the Mas- sachusetts Highway Department defining the boundary between our two Towns. The Barnstable County Shellfish Advisory Committee is continuing to negotiate with the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries to move the commercial sea clam fishery further offshore in Cape Cod Bay. The northeast portion of Wilbur Cove was opened for the taking of quahogs on December 2nd. A quantity of scallops has been taken from the West Den- nis beach area. The Commission voted unanimously to keep the present shellfish license fees for 1997.

223 Economic Development Committee

In 1996 the Economic Development Committee continued its monthly meeting schedule during what proved to be a very productive and effective year. In accordance with its charge, the Committee gave input and assistance to other Town boards concerned with economic development issues. Joint meetings and a continuing liaison with the Local Planning Com- mittee led to a review of the draft Economic Development portion of the Local Comprehensive Plan. Further consultations will be given in the future as the Plan is finalized. As this report is being drafted, a Business Development Guide is in the final stages of development which will give business owners an overview of the regulatory bodies which oversee business growth and establishment in the Town. Once completed, the Committee will then turn its attention to a Homeowner's Guide. I want to acknowledge the tremendous efforts of our Committee member, Robert David. Without his work the Guide would not be so near to publication. The Committee reviewed a number of Zoning By-Law changes and additions submitted to the Planning Board and other interested parties during the year. Two years of work by the Selectmen, Planning Department and the Committee culminated in the appropriation by the May Town Meeting of funds to conduct engineering and appraisal studies of a large area of land located north of the landfill and transfer station, to determine the feasibility of the taking of that land by the Town. Once the information is obtained, a full report will be presented to the Selectmen and other interested boards for later submission to a Town Meeting. It will be up to the Town to decide whether to take the land and, if taken, what use will be made of it. The Committee could not function effectively without the very able assistance of Charleen Greenhalgh and the other members of the Planning Department. Their assistance is most appreciated.

224 Tony Kent Arena

The Tony Kent Arena is just winding up it's 8th year of business in the Town of Dennis. The past fiscal year has not been one of the arena's best, due to the snow closings last winter which also had an adverse effect on our Summer Training Camp and other summer programs. Many skaters, especially those from out of town, went to school until the last week of June and some until July 1st. Even so, this past summer was very busy with skaters from all over the United States and Japan, and this fall and winter promise to be busier than past years. Along with being the home rink for the Yarmouth-Dennis Youth Hockey and the Yarmouth Ice Club, we are also home to the Dennis-Yarmouth High School hockey team, which after nearly being eliminated from the school budget, will be starting its season here right after Thanksgiving, due to the perseverance of dedicated hockey parents and others. They didn't give up! The loss of High School hockey would have had a direct financial effect on the Tony Kent Arena, as all youth hockey programs lead to one day playing High School Hockey. We are also pleased that the Cape Cod Waves, the new girls hockey group, chose to make the Tony Kent Arena their home rink on the Cape with practices twice a week and games every Sunday. In addition, the Shoreline Precision Team, which has enjoyed some success this past year, is also practicing here at Tony Kent Arena. We were also very pleased that the Dennis Summer Recreation Program included ice skating at the Tony Kent Arena, and we hope that it will continue for years to come. Nancy Kerrigan and Paul Wylie's coaches, Evy and Mary Scotvold, still train their students here at the arena, currently with students from Japan, Wisconsin, Illinois, New York and New Hampshire, not to mention our own National competitors, Morgan Rowe from Harwich and Jason Sylvia from New Bedford. Konstantin Kostin from Latvia has just returned to train with the Scotvolds and you may see him at the next World's. Barnstable Youth Hockey contracted more ice this past August and September than in the past, as their rink doesn't open until mid-October. This promises to be one of the best financial years ever for the Tony Kent Arena. For the first time in years, we have increased the hourly ice rental fee to help offset the high utility costs which are always increasing, although we are constantly looking for ways to keep them down. We still have public skating Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings, which is very enjoyable for the senior citizens, as the children are in school. We also have public skating every Sunday afternoon and special sessions on holidays and during school vacations, not to mention our annual Halloween skating party and Thanksgiving night's "Work off the Turkey" skate.

225 Please make it a point to stop by "your" arena to skate, watch youth and men's league hockey games, the new Cape Cod Waves games, or National level figure skaters practicing for upcoming skating competitions. You are always welcome at the Tony Kent Arena.

226 Water Quality Advisory Committee

The Water Quality Advisory Committee is involved with matters pertaining to, and impacting on, the fresh and salt water quality in Dennis, and conducts such studies and investigations necessary to advise, and to make recommendations and endorsements to other Town boards, committees and commissions. The Committee works in conjunction with the Board of Health, Conser- vation Commission, Waterways Commission, Shellfish Commission, or any other committee currently or in the future charged with the protection, preservation or enhancement of surface and ground water in or bounding the Town of Dennis. The Committee saw one membership change in 1996; Barbara Kim- ball, a charter member of the committee, retired from this volunteer service. Mrs. Kimball had been an effective member of the Committee, serving most recently as its Vice-Chairperson. Her replacement is Mr. Stephen Roach. During 1996 the Committee worked on a number of items in association with other Town organizations. It worked with the Town Engineer on matters affecting water quality, particularly where road and bridge changes were being considered, and with Natural Resources in its successful effort to obtain a grant for a level control device for Scargo Lake. Meetings were held with the Dennis Water District and the Local Planning Committee. The trial deployment of "Mutt Mitt" dispensers at Corporation Beach and Cold Storage Beach was continued in 1996.

227 Dennis Arts and Culture Council

The Dennis Arts and Culture Council is charged with the responsibility of regranting funds received from the State legislature via the Massachu- setts Cultural Council. The amount of funding received by each city and town across the Commonwealth varies from year to year. Locally, these funds are awarded to groups, individuals, schools, and non-profit organizations whose proposals meet state and local guidelines, demonstrate a commitment to the arts, and show a direct benefit to the community of Dennis. The annual deadline for submission of grant applications is Octo- ber 15, statewide. Applications are available at the office of the Town Clerk beginning each September. In accordance with State regulations the Coun- cil holds a community input meeting annually. In fiscal year 1996, grants totaling $3,300.00 were awarded as follows: Nora Allen Dale, for a series of cable broadcast programs featuring various aspects of dance; Ezra H. Baker Elementary School, PASS-for admissions to a performance of the Cape Cod Symphony Orchestra; Cape and Islands Jazz Collaborative, for a series of jazz concerts and workshops for students; Intergenerational Band Clinic, for an intergenerational concert and workshops for the community; John A. Smialek, for a free public concert by the New England Brass Quartet; and the Nathaniel H. Wixon School, PASS-for admissions to a performance at the Zeiterion Theatre, Inc. This year the Council, through a generous donation from the Bicenten- nial Committee, was also able to sponsor a juried show of the work of visual artists who are residents/taxpayers of Dennis. The exhibition opened October 12 at the Cape Cod Museum of Fine Arts and remained open through January 1997. Approximately 2500 people visited the exhibit. The DACC thanks all the volunteers who gave their time to this project. The annual community input forum is an important opportunity for community members and council members to explore policy ideas and to gen- erate community directed goals. The DACC hopes to hold this annual meeting in June and encourages members of the community interested in the Arts to attend.

228 Dennis Library Board

The Town Library Board has continued to meet on a monthly basis in its efforts to implement the various charges announced by the Selectmen when the Board was originally appointed. The Town appointed its first Town Librarian, Ms. Margaret Hill, in April under the authorization of an article passed in the August, 1995 Special Town Meeting. In May, the Annual Town Meeting approved the first comprehensive Town-wide library budget for FY'97. Beginning in June the Li- brary Board initiated a quarterly newsletter providing library information for the citizens of the Town of Dennis. In the Fall, the Library Board authorized the appointment of an ad hoc committee charged to hold hearings and make recommendations for long- term plans in the development of a full-service library for the citizens of Dennis. The twelve member committee, composed of individuals from the professional, business and cultural organizations in the Town as well as members from the Library Board, submitted their report to the Library Board in December. By the end of the year, the Library Board also authorized the issuance of the first Town-wide library card which will be issued beginning July 1, 1997. Also by the end of the year, the Town was awarded its first library grant, subject to acceptance by the Selectmen, to hire on a part-time basis a Children's Librarian for six months. This individual will work with the Town Librarian and teachers at the Ezra Baker Elementary School in developing a Town-wide reading program for children.

230 Local Planning Committee

A dedicated volunteer citizens' committee, a hard working staff (Charleen Greenhalgh of the Planning and Appeals Office and Tana Watt of the Cape Cod Commission) and input from diverse community members and Town employees helped move the Dennis Local Comprehensive Plan into high gear in 1996. As we develop the blueprint to help guide Dennis into the future...our citizens "owner manual" . . . there are many areas of concern that must be addressed. The Board of Selectmen endorsed the Economic Development component of the study as a work in progress, subject to amendment by more community input. The Historic Preservation and Community Charac- ter component will be completed in the winter of 1997 and the Affordable Housing and Open Space and Recreation aspects will follow soon after. The goal of the Committee is to complete the plan for presentation to the community at Town Meeting 1998. In 1996 to reach this goal, the Committee established a time line, created task force groups with members of the Committee and representatives from the community, and met with many community organizations. We continue to invite input from the community. Our first report is available at the Town Planning and Appeals Office. Long-time members, Tom Perrino and Ken Durling, as well as Sean Ghio of the Planning and Appeals Office, resigned this past year. We express our thanks to them for their help and to all who have joined this effort.

233 Carol C. McGuire, Chair Dennis-Yarmouth Regional School District Committee

The Dennis-Yarmouth Regional School District is made up of 4,542 students, 570 employees, 9 buildings, 255 acres of grounds and playing fields, as well as all of the books and equipment necessary to provide an education for the children of Dennis and Yarmouth. The District is gov- erned by a school committee consisting of 7 members, 3 elected by Den- nis voters and 4 elected by Yarmouth voters. In April of 1996 Yarmouth voters filled the 2 available positions by re electing E. Suzanne McAuliffe to a 3rd term and by electing Bradford Egan to a 1st term. In Dennis the vacancy created by the retirement of Frederick W. Johnson was filled by Carolyn C. Young. On behalf of the committee I would take this opportunity to thank both Dr. Johnson and Elizabeth Q. Flanagan of Yarmouth for their contributions and service to the children and citizens of our towns. The Dennis-Yarmouth Regional School District Committee meets in open session on the 1st and 3rd Mondays of each month, at 7 p.m. at the Station Avenue Elementary School in Yarmouth. The meetings are tele- vised on Ch. 21. Sub-committees meet to consider such items as curriculum, collective bargaining, transportation and school building needs. This year we established a Fiscal Planning Committee which has redefined the way our budget is considered and presented in order to make it more easily understood. In addition we are in the process of developing a Long Range Planning Committee which will make suggestions about the future direction of our school district. All sub-committee recommendations are brought to the full school committee for consideration. The primary responsibilities of a Massachusetts school committee are to employ a superintendent to manage the district, to establish policies which the superintendent and administrators will use in carrying out their day-to-day responsibilities, and to approve the budget. Your school committee is responding to these responsibilities in the following ways: 1. We have evaluated the performance of the superintendent and reported on the results of that evaluation. In addition, we have adopted the recently promulgated MA Department of Education Administrative Performance Stan- dards for future annual evaluations of the superintendent. 2. We have undertaken a complete review and updating of our policy manual. This is important and time-consuming work which requires input from our staff and would benefit from public input as well. All policy adoptions and changes are considered in open meetings. 3. The consideration of our budget has always taken place in open session, at meetings running from September through the town meetings. This year the committee adopted the recommendations of its Fiscal Planning Committee and improved the methods for presentation, consideration and approval of the District budget.

234 In addition, the committee participated in a self-evaluation, facilitated by a consultant from the Mass. Association of School Committees, has reported its findings to the community, and is making changes based on the results of that effort. Citizens elected to serve as members of school committees are not required to be educators or even to be familiar with education issues. Our responsibility is to listen and learn more about the accomplishments of our children and the needs of our schools, and then to establish policies and make decisions which reflect your values, your concerns and your goals and expectations for the children in our towns. We understand the need for increased accountability from all, higher standards for all, and more efficient and effective use of resources. It is my hope, and I believe that of all members of your school committee, that we can respond to local concerns, as well as to the Massachusetts Education Reform Act in an atmosphere of trust, cooperation and collaboration, and at a pace that will not be harmful to our district or to our students. We cannot do the job you elected us to do without your trust and support. Finally, on behalf of the entire committee, I would like to acknowledge the contributions of time and equipment made to the District by many of our citizens and businesses. The schools of Dennis and Yarmouth would be different places without your ongoing assistance, and we sincerely thank you.

235 Dr. Michael D. McCaffrey Superintendent of Schools

October 1, 1996 enrollments show minimal changes compared to a year ago. In Dennis the number has declined from 1858 students to 1828. Yarmouth shows a decrease from 2689 students to 2681 students. While declines have occurred in the past two years, this is probably a temporary phenomenon. The entering kindergarten is at 365 students and the exiting grade 12 is at 220 students. While many school districts are experiencing an increase of state aid due to the Massachusetts Educational Reform Law, this district is not. Ten years ago we received about 26% of our budget from state aid. Today, that has dropped to 21%, a loss of almost $1.5 million dollars. In 1996, five Proposition 2 1/2 override elections have failed to increase local revenue for educational expenses. It was necessary to cut $2.4 million dollars from the 95-96 budget including 43 positions. If increased state or local aid is not forthcoming in the near future, the district will be forced to continue to compromise programs through budget cuts. While the financial parts of the Massachusetts Educational Reform Law leave the district in serious financial straits, there are positive accomplishments that have come with the legislation: • Professional standards for teachers and administrators have been adopted. • General level high school courses have been discontinued in order to promote a more challenging program of studies. • The district has produced a comprehensive new curriculum in math, science and technology which has been guided by frameworks issued by the state. • Comprehensive planning guides for professional development and technology have been developed. • A community-based health advisory committee has been formed. • Students are able to enroll in college credits at Cape Cod Commu- nity College while attending high school. • The district has joined the school choice program which opens enrollments to students in other communities and will bring in additional state aid. • Test scores of Dennis-Yarmouth students in the Massachusetts Ed- ucational Assessment program have remained stable and have again exceeded state averages. In the principalships of the eight schools in the district, there has been one change in 1996. Patrick Schettini, formerly the assistant principal at Reading, MA. High School has been appointed principal of Dennis- Yarmouth Regional High School, replacing Thomas Lemond who had served for a year while a search was being conducted for the principal.

236 The continuing efforts of volunteer citizens have made possible the wide array of services we offer students. These volunteers, ranging from policy makers on the elected school committee, to an assistant coach, to a chaperone on a field trip are all essential participants in the work of the district. Their efforts are most appreciated.

237 Donald D. Johnson Director of Fiscal Affairs

The business management team for the district is responsible for the following functions: financial planning and analysis, transportation, building operation and maintenance, purchasing, fringe benefits, insurance, payroll, accounts payable, treasury functions, food service, and non-certified personnel. The focus of the business services for 1996 included two significant themes, financial reporting and building renovation projects. The 1996 fiscal year closed on a positive financial note because the district instituted a series of budget cuts amounting to more than $500,000 early in the year. The lack of support for Proposition 2 1/2 override ballots in both towns required the district to cut the 1997 fiscal year budget by $2,500,000. This office had direct responsibility for planning and implementing reductions in custodial, clerical, and aide positions; school transportation; and energy consumption. A personnel policy change requiring mandatory vacation periods for custodial and clerical staff should result in savings in energy and substitute expense accounts. As we prepare the fiscal year 1998 budget we are working closely with the school committee fiscal planning subcommittee to develop new budget presentation and reporting procedures. The district was able to use bond funds, a federal energy grant and a federal Economic Development grant to complete several major renovation projects in 1996. We installed a handicapped access ramp at the MacArthur School. At the Station Avenue School we installed an oil tank and we replaced the oil burners at the Small School. Mattacheese Middle School gained a new roof and a walk-in freezer and the Baker School had the interior painted and carpets replaced and we refurbished the gymna- sium. We welcomed Joan Harvey who joins the district after many years of service for New England School Supply Company as the district payroll clerk. Looking forward to the challenges of 1997 we see our efforts directed toward completing negotiations with the secretaries and aides association that started last year as well as negotiating a new contract for the custodial, driver, and cafeteria employees. Other significant items to be dealt with include bidding for a new five year transportation contract; further building renovations funded by bond funds; and development of a district wide technology network.

238 David W. Crellin Director of Instruction

The Education Reform Act of 1993, now in its third year, continues to influence curriculum development in this as in every other district in the Commonwealth. Among its many features, the Act provided for the establishment of Curriculum Frameworks in seven areas of instruction: Mathe- matics, Science/Technology, History and Social Science, Language Arts, Health, World Languages, and the Arts. This is the first time In the history of education in Massachusetts that the state has attempted to determine the content of individual districts' curricula. Until now local districts have had absolute authority to determine what students will learn in each subject area. To assure that individual districts are complying with the education reform initiative, the state will begin administering tests to students in grades 4, 8, and 10 in the spring of 1998. The tests will be based on only four of the frameworks: Mathematics, Science/Technology, History and Social Sci- ence, and Language Arts. Districts will be obliged to devise their own assessments to measure student progress in the other three areas and will be audited to make sure they do so. The tests will be called the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assess- ment System or "MCAS." They will be different from any other statewide tests, such as the MEAP, ever administered. The first difference is that they will be based on specific curriculum frameworks rather than on arbi- trarily chosen content. The second is that they will yield individual student results as opposed to the merely school and district results we have received in the past. These results will enable us, for the first time, to know which students are making sufficient progress and which are not. The third difference is that the MCAS test will have consequences attached to student performance. Students will have to pass this test in order to receive a diploma from a Massachusetts high school. Because they will take it ini- tially in their sophomore year, and may retake it in each succeeding year, they will have at least three chances to pass. As the frameworks have been published, we have used them to review our present curricula and make modifications where necessary to assure that our instruction will prepare students for the tests. At present only two of the seven Frameworks, Mathematics and Science/Technology, have been adopted by vote of the State Board of Education. This year we have fully implemented a new math program, Every Day Mathematics, in grades K-5, which is based explicitly on the Mathematics framework. Next year we will extend that program to grade 6 for all students after having conducted a pilot test of it this year. In science we are completing year three of a five-year project to revise our grades K-8 science program based on the Science/Technology Frame-

239 work. When the project is completed we will have a series of six science units for each grade level based on students' inquiry and manipulation of materials in the areas of biology, physics, and earth and space sciences. Each monthly meeting of the Curriculum Sub-Committee of the School Committee features a status report on one curriculum area. The public is welcome at our meetings and encouraged to call the Instruction Office for a schedule of meeting dates, times, and topics.

240 J. Peter Regan Director of Special Services

The special education staff and the programs they serve are under increasing stress due to costs associated with the education of our disabled population. This is not the result of more children being enrolled in special education but rather the result of greater levels of need than was apparent only a few years ago. As noted in previous reports, we continue to maintain a percentage of special education enrollment that is well below state and local averages. In Dennis-Yarmouth we have large numbers of children with multiple disabilities including significant intellectual limitations, pervasive develop- mental disorder, attention deficit disorder and obsessive/compulsive behav- ior. These students often need close supervision and small group instruction. Special Education Law requires that educational plans be written to afford "maximum feasible benefit in the least restrictive educational environment." This sometimes requires additional special education aides to monitor and assist significantly impaired students in the classroom. A re-evaluation of some of the requirements of the special education law is being undertaken at both the federal and state level. Unintended consequences of a very good law have caused an increase in litigation. This is expensive, time consuming, and leads to an adversarial process which may not benefit the children involved. The schools are being asked more and more to become partners in expensive medical or paramedical interventions. This adds enormously to the serious financial burdens we are experiencing. We are making every effort to supplement our costs through creative grant writing. We now receive $294,000 in grant funds in the early childhood area. Our early childhood grants have been instrumental in providing children's librarians in Dennis and Yarmouth. We have received grants this year to assist in the education of limited English proficient children. We have written a joint grant with Cape Cod Community College to provide adult ESL and literacy programs. We appreciate the support of our school committee and the willingness of the communities of Dennis and Yarmouth to encourage excellent pro- gramming for our most needy students. Our staff will continue to work well beyond contractual obligations to provide the best service possible given the current state of educational funding.

241 Joanne S. Lee Food Service Coordinator

The food service program continued to be self-supporting during the 1995-1996 school year. Labor hours increased slightly to approximately 153 hours daily with 16.1 meals being produced per labor hour. Overall production increased in fiscal year 1996. The program served an average of 2470 lunches per day with a yearly participation rate of 60.4%. This is a slight increase over the previous year. The breakfast program increased 11% over the year before with a daily average of 224 breakfasts served. The lunch prices remained the same: $1.30 for elementary students; $1.40 for middle school students; $1.50 for high school students. The average number of students eligible for free or reduced lunch was 1045 that represents 25.6% of the entire enrollment. Currently the number of eligible students as of November 1996 is 1070 (25.7%). Payroll made up 46.8% of the food service budget for fiscal year 1996 while food purchases accounted for 36.1%. U.S.D.A. commodities accounted for 4.4% of the budget and the remaining 12.7% went to paper supplies, cleaning supplies and other miscellaneous expenses. The increase in payroll is due to an increase in overall man hours and not due to hourly rate increases. The current contract with the cafeteria workers froze wages at the fiscal year 1994 rates that will continue through June 1997 when the agreement expires. One major maintenance expense was the cost of converting the walk- in freezer and refrigerator from water to air-cooled units and the installation of a new freezer box at Mattacheese Middle School, our main base of operations. The food service program continued the practice of reimbursing the general fund for a portion of its fringe benefits cost by transferring $25,000 to the general fund.

242 Patrick A. Schettini, Principal Dennis-Yarmouth Regional High School

The Dennis-Yarmouth Regional High School student enrollment is 1,152 for the school year 1996-1997 and is projected to increase slightly next year. During 1996, our students continued to enjoy academic success. Eighty-two percent of the senior class planned to enter college: fifty-eight percent to attend four-year colleges or universities, twenty-four percent two-year colleges; seven percent intended to further their education at other post-secondary schools; two percent entered the military; eight percent joined the work force and one percent was undecided at graduation of their future plans. The class of 1996 collectively received over $193,000 in scholarships at the annual Scholarship Ceremony held at the high school. Mr. Thomas A. Lemond, Jr. was appointed acting principal for the 1995-1996 school year and Mr. Kenneth Jenks was appointed acting assistant principal. In July of 1996 a new principal was appointed, Mr. Patrick A Schettini, Jr., who had been assistant principal at Reading Memorial High School for many years before coming to D-Y. The semester based extended period schedule continues to offer many advantages to our students and provides the opportunity for our teachers to incorporate student centered activities into their classes more effectively and efficiently. Curriculum development focused on the Massachusetts curriculum frameworks. Student and school assessment are key areas of interest and research for our faculty. Many of our teachers participated in Massachusetts Department of Education training in portfolio assessment. One of our teachers is a portfolio assessment trainer for the state. In an ambitious and unique effort to set our high school on a course for success, our school community will develop, over the next year, a Statement of Purpose that will be the guiding force behind our decision- making processes. The process to create this document is intended to unite our school community and provide a forum for communication among all constituencies of our school. The Dennis-Yarmouth Regional High School council will serve as the "keeper" of our Statement of Purpose. They will develop a school portfolio that will serve to assess and document our journey. Our Student Council received the Excellence Award for the second straight year as the outstanding student council in the Commonwealth. The D-Y Theater Company reached the finals of the State Drama Festival. Our art and music students continue to receive recognition for their fine accomplishments. The Horatio Alger Foundation selected D-Y as one of only two schools in the Commonwealth to participate in its scholarship and career day program. As a result, Paula Santos, a 1996 D-Y graduate, was awarded a $5,000 scholarship. Our school will hold another career day

243 during the 1996-1997 school year. The theme of the 1996-1997 school year's Spirit Rally was "Respect." Ms. Kate Philla, president of our student council, and Mr. Robert Haff, our athletic director, led the rally. By all accounts it was an overwhelming success. Ian Cadillac, David Dykeman and Michael Walsh, students of the class of 1997, stood up and mobilized other students to promote school spirit and school pride. They identified the problem that many of their fellow students needed motivation to become more active and successful in school. These thoughtful and enterprising students had the idea that tangible benefits such as fast food discounts, free health club memberships, and the opportunity to leave the school campus during lunch would provide the needed motivation. Their hard work and dedication resulted in the Reinventing Pride Program or RIP Program. This program has proved very successful. Our athletes continue to strive for success. D-Y was awarded the Sportsmanship Award from the Atlantic Coast League. Of particular note is the fact that no student athlete in the class of 1996 was ejected from an interscholastic event in their entire four years of competition. The Girl's Track, Field Hockey and Girl's Cross Country teams displayed their winning ways as they clinched league titles and the Baseball, Boy's Tennis, Boy's Soccer and Golf Teams qualified for the state tournaments. Thanks- giving Day 1996 will forever be remembered for the first annual Chowder Bowl football game between Dennis-Yarmouth and Nauset High Schools. The Dolphins of Dennis-Yarmouth keep the bowl beating Nauset by a score of 34-0. This game will be remembered by all that attended for the sportsmanlike conduct of the participants and fans. Both schools look forward to many years of a healthy sports rivalry. In all, the students, parents, faculty, staff, administration and others that comprise our school community truly work in the best interest of the young people of Dennis and Yarmouth. The caring and dedication exuded regularly contribute to an environment that promotes learning, success, and achievement of everyone.

244 Charles T. Orloff, Principal Mattacheese Middle School

The education reform movement that has been so evident in this state during the last five years is at a critical turning point. How we define the issues and establish fiscal priorities for the children of Dennis and Yarmouth will determine if the movement toward stronger schools meets with success. During the last school year the number of students at Mattacheese Middle School has increased slightly to the current enrollment of 677 students in grades six, seven, and eight. The number of classroom teachers has actually decreased during that same period from twenty-nine to twenty- eight. This means that the average class size is now 25.4 at the eighth grade level, 24.2 at the seventh grade level, and 23.2 at the sixth grade level. In the last year we have witnessed the elimination of the entire industrial arts and home economics programs, the closing down of the school's tennis courts, the serious deterioration of the track, the down sizing of the athletic program, and the elimination of the community resource officer and two teacher aides. In addition, there has been little money allocated to address the glaring needs of under staffing in special education, replacing damaged windows, repairing and repainting lockers, and upgrading the alarm system to mention only a few. These issues, and the lack of any serious fiscal initiative to address the deficits in technology, the need for comprehensive programs for talented and gifted students, and the growing demand for student assistance programs, should raise concerns in every part of our community. Despite the down sizing of many critical parts of the school's program Mattacheese students continue to excel academically. Last year, for the fourth time in a row, reading scores, as measured by the Massachusetts Educational Assessment Program, continued to rise. The fact that reading scores have risen over 120 points since the tests were first given in 1988 is clear indication of the high quality of teaching in Dennis-Yarmouth, and the dedication of our staff. As we approach the critical time of year when funding for the schools is appropriated, we ask that every citizen of this Town support the quality of education that we have come to expect in this district. We ask for your commitment to appropriate class size, to restoring our athletic program, funding basic curriculum needs, and upgrading the computer program. Here at Mattacheese we will continue to do the very best job that we can to serve the children of this Town. We sincerely thank Dr. Michael McCaffrey, Superintendent of Schools, and the entire Dennis-Yarmouth Regional School District Committee for their continued support.

245 Patricia A. Fitzsimmons, Principal Nathaniel H. Wixon Middle School

The 1996-97 school year began in September with seven hundred fifty- five students in grades four through eight, fifty-three full-time professional staff members, three administrators, and a supportive and competent secretarial, custodial and cafeteria staff. Joining our special needs staff at the eighth grade level was Mrs. Mary Lou Dunbar. In the spring of 1996 the Dennis Building Needs Committee, created in response to parental concerns regarding the use of space and possible overcrowding in the two Dennis schools, as well as the feasibility of physi- cally housing the fourth and fifth grades in the Middle School, presented their findings to the Dennis-Yarmouth Regional School Committee and the Town. This report stated that due to stabilizing enrollments in the Town and the present efficient use of space, a new school building program would not have to be considered. In conjunction with this committee, a town-wide information gathering meeting was held at the school to ascer- tain the concerns and recommendations of the townspeople. As a result of this meeting and the work of the Dennis Building Needs Committee, it was determined that continued positive communication between parents and staff of both schools would be an appropriate and effective remedy at this time. The Wixon Middle School Council consisting of staff members, parents and community members continues to study the changes that will be necessary to implement the Curriculum Frameworks and Time and Learning mandates of the Educational Reform Act which will take effect in Septem- ber of 1997. This year has seen a welcomed increase in parental involvement in the Wixon Middle School, in the Parent Council, in the newly formed Athletic Boosters Club, and in day-to-day interaction with administrators and teachers. As a result of the abstemious budget funding for the 1996-97 school year, the most noticeable losses were 1) a teacher at grade levels 4, 6, 7 & 8 resulting in increased class sizes; 2) the termination of the Industrial Arts Program; 3) the elimination of the Household Arts Program; 4) the reduction by one-third of the Physical Education Program for every student; 5) the substitution of a fee-based after-school program to replace intramu- rals and activities; 6) the institution of an equipment fee for each participant in our reduced interscholastic athletic programs; and 7) the cutback of one daily bus resulting in no bus service for any child who lives within a mile and one half of school. Positive innovations at the Wixon Middle School continue to be piloted and implemented, including an emphasis on achievement of the highest potential for all members of the Wixon Community, recognition of positive demeanor of students both in school and in the community, a flexible block

246 scheduling model for students in grades six through eight, as well as an extraordinary commitment to a program which navigates students to accept personal responsibility for their actions. The Wixon Middle School Community continues its commitment to the Town of Dennis to offer the highest quality education to our students as we prepare them for the future.

247 Randall W. Wallin, M. Ed., Principal Marguerite E. Small Elementary School

Again, it is a privilege to submit this Annual Report of the Marguerite E. Small Elementary School. We are in the third year of the Educational Reform Bill, which continues to challenge the professional staff to meet its demands. Educational Reform clearly focuses on the community as a whole to work collectively, as partners, in educating the children of Yarmouth. Through this collective effort, we will find success in educating our Yarmouth students. During the 1995-96 school year, our enrollment reached 393 students. The individual breakdown was as follows: Kindergarten, 65; Grade one, 80; Grade two, 59; Grade three, 64; Grade four, 69, Grade five, 56. I would like to congratulate the professional teaching staff for their dedication in educating the children in their charge. Their efforts do not go unnoticed and many times extend beyond expectations. This year the grade four and five report card was revised to better reflect the changes in the curriculum and involve both the students and parents in setting educational semester goals. I am happy to report parents have become enthusiastically involved in helping their child set these goals. This marked the fourth year that the teachers have held parent curriculum nights. I cannot impress how important it is for the parents to attend their child's curriculum night. This is a key factor in learning first hand what your child will be experiencing in their individual classrooms. The Dennis-Yarmouth Regional School District, through the office of the Director of Instruction and the Curriculum Lead Teachers, continues to develop its curriculum to align with the Commonwealth's Curriculum Frameworks. We have fully implemented the Everyday Math program Kindergarten (K) through grade five. We have also incorporated additional science units by way of "hands-on kits" in K through grade five. The members of the School Improvement Council, as well as the entire staff, continue to respond to the Needs Survey of 1995 and plan to focus on the theme of respect for the upcoming school year. This plan was presented to the school committee for their approval in the spring and we are eager to implement it. A copy of this plan is available here at the school, and in your local public library, as well as in the D-Y Administration Office. I would like to thank our ever active Parents Advisory Council (PAC) for the tireless volunteer hours. Through our PAC we have offered an extensive After School Program offering children to enroll in varied activities from chess to outside sports. PAC has also contracted for special assembly programs to further enrich our students' educational experience. In addition, the secretaries, aides, cafeteria personnel and custodial workers are

248 to be commended for their "behind the scenes" dedication and commitment to the smooth building operation. We say good-bye to Sumner (Skip) Campell, our home to school counselor. Skip retired after many years of service to the children of Dennis and Yarmouth; as a result of fiscal cut backs. I would like to wish Skip a much deserved, long and happy retirement. We will miss the many ways that you have brought smiles to the children, parents and staff of our school. I would like to thank the Police Chief Carnes and the efforts of Officer Walter (Rob) Warren for recognizing the need for the continued involvement and support in the educational process of the children. The Adopt- A-School Program has been extremely successful and the safety programs play a very important part in the children's lives.

249 Kevin F. Depin, Principal Ezra H. Baker School

It is an honor to present this report of the Ezra H. Baker School for the first time as its principal. The Baker School employs 78 full and part-time employees who work in different capacities but share the same goal of providing children in the Town of Dennis with the very best educational opportunities. We are a large school with seven sections at each grade level, Kindergarten through Grade Three, a grant funded, integrated pre- school, and a self-supporting extended daycare program. During the past year, there have been monumental changes at the Baker School. In February, Principal Frances Meyer retired. In her leadership roles at the Baker School, Mrs. Meyer was known for her support and encouragement of teachers in their professional growth. She was in every sense of the word an instructional leader. Three long time staff members, Sumner Campbell, Denise Carloni, and Thomas Griffin, also left Baker in 1996. We recognize the contributions each of these fine professionals has made to countless Dennis children and wish them health and happiness in all of their future endeavors. At the Baker School, and indeed throughout the Dennis-Yarmouth Re- gional School District, we continue to refine and improve our curriculum. This year we are incorporating science units based upon the Massachu- setts Curriculum Frameworks for Science and Technology, two at each grade level. We have also fully implemented a very rigorous math curriculum that not only demands basic knowledge but encourages mathematical thinking. We are currently piloting a health education program in two classrooms at each grade level. Teachers continue to study and refine their approach to reading instruction, which is best described as a holistic, litera- ture based method that instructs children to use phonics, context, gram- mar, and picture clues to help them unlock the meaning of print. The related arts, physical education, music, library, and art, strive to connect their domains to more traditional areas of study. Each student at the Baker School has frequent access to computers and other technologies to enhance his or her learning. Finally, we have endeavored this year to improve our progress reporting procedures by redesigning our report card. Recognizing that children learn from a variety of experiences, we rein- stituted, with the support of our parent council, an after school activities program which allows children to pursue other areas of interest outside of traditional school time. In May, we held a week long celebration of the accomplishments of all of our students in reading, writing, math, science, and the arts. Highlights of the week included a school wide talent show, a family reading night, and a visit by local celebrity Johnny Kelley. Students also benefit from the partnerships between the school and the Dennis Po- lice Department, Fire Department, Recreation Department, Town Libraries, Recycling Commission, and Historical Society.

250 We at the Ezra H. Baker School continue with our mission to prepare today's children for tomorrow's challenges. On behalf of the over 600 students, Pre Kindergarten through Grade Three, the faculty and the staff of the Ezra H. Baker School, I thank the citizens of the Town of Dennis for their continued support.

251 Nancy C. Melia, Principal John Simpkins School

1996 was a year characterized by marked contrasts between the opening and closing days. As the financial picture for the D-Y School System unfolded over the late spring months, it became clear that the Simpkins School would be required to make significant cuts in the operating budget between the first half of 1996 and the last. Between June and September, the fifth grade class was transformed from 5 sections to 3; the health aide and the library aide positions were abolished; secretarial and computer aide positions were cut from full-time to part-time and both service and supply accounts suffered some losses. The summer of '96 represented a traumatic period for all D-Y schools, but the JSE staff, students and parents did their best to cope with the changing circumstances. The school continues to benefit from a cadre of community volunteers who are generous with their time and talents. Both the Yarmouth Fire De- partment and the Police Department offer important prevention programs and important role models for our students. The PTO, under the capable leadership of Linda Tucker and Kerri Lotti, sponsored numerous fund rais- ers to support field trips, cultural enrichment programs and special purchases. School Council members, including Parent Representatives Karen Carnes, Elena Ghioto and Mary Jo Govoni, Teacher Representatives Pa- mela Hollingsworth and Mara Van Duizend, and Community Representa- tive Rockwell Ludden conferred over many months to devise a school improvement plan that focused on students. As 1996 draws to a conclusion, it is important to recognize employees who have retired or moved on to new challenges. I would like to extend to Gloria Krawczynski-Cafeteria Manager, Peter Miller-Director of the D-Y Strings Program, Margot Robert-Grade 5 Teacher, Louisa MacPherson- Grade 3 Teacher, Vicki Hart-SPED Aide and Marleigh Jacques-ESL Teacher our fondest wishes for their future good health and happiness.

252 Jeanne M. Carrick, Principal Laurence C. MacArthur Elementary School

The Laurence C. MacArthur Elementary School opened its doors in September with a student population of 248. The enrollment figure is about twenty less than anticipated, and we lost one kindergarten section due to the lower number. We provide before and after school daycare and a kindergarten care program for the many families who need to use these services. Also, there are an additional fifteen students enrolled in our early childhood program, which is funded by a federal grant. Through this grant, an age-appropriate play structure was constructed in our play area. We hope to increase the opportunities for all our students by eventually adding more pieces to the existing ones and replacing those out-of-date pieces. Our School Improvement Plan was completed and submitted to the school committee in July. Our goals focus on providing a safe and challenging environment for our students, along with utilizing volunteers from the community to provide additional services and programs for both students and staff. We have also received grants from the Yarmouth Cultural Council and other organizations that allow our students to benefit from the programs that additional funds provide. The MacArthur school continues to implement curriculum initiatives and educational programs. The high degree of professional development and enthusiasm of our staff ensure the achievement of our students. Two dedicated staff members have chosen to retire after many years of service to the school district. Mr. Henry St. Cyr and Mrs. Doris Kelley have contrib- uted greatly to the education of many Yarmouth students. We wish them good health and a well-deserved retirement. Our school program benefits and improves due to the support of our Town residents, district staff, and many community efforts. In particular, our relationship with both the police and fire departments has been a positive one. The fire education program, under the direction of Lt. Raiskio, and our police liaison officer, Patrolman Scichilone, provide an important service to our entire student body. The implementation of the "Cop Cards" program initiated by Police Chief Carnes has created a positive link between the police department and the schools. Our Education Reform Act Council and PTO continue to support our goals by volunteering their time and donating funds to the MacArthur School. We are grateful to our entire community for the support our school receives.

253 Sharon L Hartley, Principal Station Avenue Elementary School

The Station Avenue Elementary School's first full year of operation was distinguished by growth - the academic and interpersonal growth of the school community as well as the physical increase in our student population. This first year also tested our strength as we persevered through the final stages of the construction process. On October 28, 1996, the Station Avenue School (SAE) Building Committee completed its task by accepting the facility on behalf of the Town of Yarmouth. We extend our gratitude to the members of the Building Committee, the Dennis-Yarmouth School Committee, Dr. Michael McCaffrey, and Mr. Donald Johnson for their support and assistance. This year was also marked by budget constraints which brought about changes in personnel, a change in the computer instruction, a reduction in bus service for our students and a reduction in the school nurse's assign- ment to half-time. Our enrollment has steadily increased since the school opened in Sep- tember, 1995. We ended the '95-96 school year with 426 students and reopened in September, 1996 with 455 students. Our students and staff now occupy every classroom and office space. We are fortunate to have an active School Council that includes the following members: parent representatives Amy Almonte, Karen Butler, Sandra Femino, and Brenda Martinez (co-chair); teacher representatives Pam Hill, Kathy Kenyon, and Paul Leofanti; and community representative, Francis Worrell. The SAE School Council meets regularly with me to provide advice and guidance regarding school programs and policy and to develop a school improvement plan. Our school handbook states, "It is our sincerest goal to create a community of learners - readers and writers, mathematicians, artists, musi- cians, lovers of science and world language, children who share a love for learning." We pursue this vision through academic, athletic and social programs and opportunities for our students. The core educational program continues to feature challenging opportunities for our Kindergarten through Grade 5 students. All students explore and gain skills in Communicative Arts, Mathematics, Social Studies, Sci- ence as well as Art, Music, Physical Education, Computer Science and Library Skills. Students in grades 4 and 5 participate in Health Education classes once each week and have the opportunity to enroll in the instrumental music program. Our Music Department also offers an optional Cho- ral Music program for fifth graders. This year SAE students participated in the Jump For Heart Program, sponsored by the Heart Fund; a Math Fair, highlighting the new Everyday Math Curriculum; the LACE Poetry Celebra-

254 tion; the Odyssey of the Mind Program, sending four teams to the local competition; an outdoor Flag Day Program and field days for all students. Our students continue to benefit from our talented and dedicated faculty. Staff members who are new to the district include: Nancy Potter, kindergarten teacher; Charlene Foley, Special Education Teacher; and Denise Stanley, Special Education Aide. Joining our staff this year from other schools within the district are Betsy Pontius, First Grade Teacher; Ellen Sheret, Instructional Aide; Marilyn Martin, School Nurse, shared with M.E. Small School; and Kathy Malkasian, Physical Education Teacher. We are grateful to the members of the police and fire departments for their strong support and enthusiasm for working with our students. Repre- sentatives from these departments have provided excellent safety programs for our staff and students regarding a variety of pertinent topics including bus and bicycle safety, fire prevention, emergency and evacuation drills. Officer Lou Nickinello, assigned to our school through the Police Department's Youth Services Unit, has provided consistent support and concern for Station Avenue School students. The SAE School Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) continues to provide active, positive support for Station Avenue School through programs such as the After School Activity Program, a Holiday Fair and Family Breakfast, Spring Flea Market, Book Fair and the Landscaping Project. The PTO turns these projects into dividends for our students in the form of support for field trips, cultural arts programs and classroom activities. We extend our sincere appreciation for their contributions to PTO members and their officers: Ellen Sheret, President; Mary Ellen Carter and Ginette Morrissey Co-Vice Presidents; Carol King, Treasurer; and Secretary, Kim Clark. Our students also benefit on a daily basis from the tremendous work of our volunteers. Ellen Barber coordinates the Volunteers in the Public Schools (VIPS) program in which senior volunteers are teamed with teachers to provide assistance through direct work with students as well as support for projects and special events. The Education Engineers Program, organized by teacher, Mary Nelson, encourages D-Y High School students to assist our youngsters in a variety of ways including teaching World Lan- guages, tutoring individual and small groups of students, and serving as mentors and coaches. We submit this report with great pride in the accomplishments of our students and with appreciation for the ongoing support and good will of our school community.

282 D/Y District Study Committee

The D/Y District Study Committee was formed in July of 1996. Its mission was to prepare "policies and special legislation to reform the budget process of the Dennis/Yarmouth Regional School District." Membership was to consist of four citizens, appointed by the Boards of Selectmen of Dennis and Yarmouth. At its organizational meeting the Committee voted to request that the Selectmen permit additional membership from recommendations from the Dennis/Yarmouth School Committee; thus, one additional member from each Town was added. The Committee has met weekly and has held fact-finding sessions with the citizens of each Town, the School Committee, the Superintendent of Schools, the Town Administrators of Dennis and Yarmouth and, finally, our state legislators. Diverse input was received at these sessions and several areas of misunderstanding, poor or outdated procedures were identified. The Committee is optimistic that it will be able to offer recommendations for improvement which will be acceptable to the Towns and the School Department and more amicable relationships will be forthcoming.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the School Committee Dennis-Yarmouth Regional School District

I have audited the general purpose financial statements of the Dennis-Yarmouth Regional School District, as of June 30, 1996, and for the year then ended. These general purpose financial statements are the responsibility of the Dennis-Yarmouth Regional School District's management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these general purpose financial statements based on my audit.

I conducted my audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, and the provisions of Office of Management and Budget Circular A-128, Audits of State and Local Governments. Those standards and OMB Circular A-128 require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the general purpose financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the general purpose financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion.

The District prepares its general purpose financial statements using accounting principles which are in conformity with the Uniform Municipal Accounting System promulgated by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of Revenue. As described in Note 2, these accounting principles differ in certain respects from generally accepted accounting principles in the area of accounting for fixed assets. The effects of this difference on the accompanying general purpose financial statements have not been quantified.

In my opinion, except for the effects on the general purpose financial statements of the item described in the third paragraph, the general purpose financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Dennis-Yarmouth Regional School District, as of June 30, 1996, and the result of its operations for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

291 DENNIS-YARMOUTH REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT

Notes to the Financial Statements

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The accounting policies of the Dennis-Yarmouth Regional School District (the School District) as reflected in the accompanying financial statements for the year ended June 30, 1996 conform to generally accepted accounting principles for local government units except as indicated hereinafter. The more significant accounting policies of the School District are summarized below:

A) Fund Accounting For reporting purposes, the financial activities of the School District are accounted for through the use of various funds. Each fund is a separate accounting entity with self-balancing accounts. The following types of funds are used by the School District:

General Fund - to account for all financial activities of the School District, except those required to be accounted for in another fund. Most revenues and expenditures of a general operational nature are accounted for in this fund.

Special Revenue Funds - to account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources that are restricted to expenditures for specified purposes.

Trust Funds - to account for assets held by the School District in a trustee capacity. Trust funds are classified as expendable or nonexpendable depending on whether the principal portion of the fund balance may be expended, or whether only investment income may be used. The District presently has no nonexpendable trust fund balances.

In 1996, the District created a workers' compensation trust fund as provided by Chapter 40 Section 13C of Massachusetts General Laws. This trust fund receives an annually established amount from the general fund.

Capital Projects - These funds account for major capital improvements which are financed from the School District's general obligation bond issues or through other special sources.

B) Basis of Accounting The modified accrual method of accounting is used for all of the School District's funds. Under the modified accrual method, revenues are recorded when susceptible to accrual (i.e., measurable and available to finance the School District's operations) and expenditures are recorded when the liability is incurred.

292 C) Fixed Assets Property, plant and equipment acquired or constructed for general operational services are recorded as expenditures. Generally accepted accounting principles require that such assets be accounted for in a "general fixed assets group of accounts". The School District does not maintain such an account group.

D) Budgetary Data

General Budget Policies The Regional District School Committee annually determines the amount to be raised (after deducting the amount of anticipated revenue the district expects to receive) to maintain and operate the School District during the next fiscal year and apportions the amount among the member towns in accordance with the terms of the agreement. The amounts apportioned to each town are certified by the regional school district treasurer to the treasurers of the towns. Each town appropriates the amounts so certified at the next annual meeting.

E) Assets, Liabilities, and Fund Equity

Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash balances from all funds, except those required to be segregated by law, are combined to form a consolidation of cash. Cash balances are invested to the extent available and interest earnings are recognized in the General Fund. Certain special revenue funds and fiduciary funds cash are segregated and investment earnings become part of those funds.

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. Inventories in the Special Revenue Funds consist of expendable supplies of the food service program. Cost is recorded as an expenditure at the time of purchase. Inventories are offset by a reserve since they do not constitute available spendable resources.

Warrants and Salaries Payable - This represents Fiscal Year 1996 bills/salaries owed by the District and paid during the first 15 days of Fiscal Year 1997. Fund Balance Reserve for Encumbrances - Appropriations that are carried over into the next fiscal year and do not constitute expenditures or liabilities are reported as reservations of fund equity.

Fund Balance Reserved for Expenditures - This represents amounts reserved from undesignated fund balance to be reapportioned to reduce the Fiscal Year 1997 assessments to the member towns.

293 F) Total Columns On Combined Statements - Overview

Total columns on the Combined Statements - Overview are captioned "Memorandum Only" to facilitate financial analysis.

Data in these columns do not present financial position, results of operations, or changes in financial position in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Neither is such data comparable to consolidation. Interfund eliminations have not been made in the aggregation of this data .

G) Financial Reporting Entity

The Dennis-Yarmouth Regional School District, for financial reporting purposes, includes all funds and account groups relevant to the operations of its schools. The financial statements presented herein do not include agencies which have been formed under applicable state laws as separate and distinct units of government apart from the Dennis-Yarmouth Regional School District.

The following governmental units are specifically excluded from the School District's financial statements:

Town of Dennis Town of Yarmouth Barnstable County

Also, several student activity funds belonging to various student functions and activities have not been included in the accompanying financial statements. At June 30, 1996, these student activity funds comprised approximately $110,000 maintained in several checking accounts controlled by the School District.

H) The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Departures From Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

The significant departure of the School District's financial statements from generally accepted accounting principles is as follows: General fixed asset acquisitions are recorded as expenditures and not capitalized in a general fixed asset group of accounts.

294 3. School District Assessments

Under terms of the agreement, as amended, establishing the Dennis-Yarmouth Regional School District, the School District's costs are apportioned and assessments are levied against the towns forming the District. The School District's costs are apportioned as follows:

Costs to be Apportioned Basis of Apportionment

Principal and interest relating Enrollment of the respective to debt issued subsequent to towns July 1, 1975

Special operating costs, princi- Pupil hours of the respective pally related to providing towns relating to such pro- evening educational programs grams

Operating costs, by facility, Enrollment of the respective other than Central Office costs towns

Central Office costs Total enrollment of the respective towns

4. Employee Benefit Plans

A) Teachers, certain administrative personnel and other professional employees are covered by and must participate in the Massachusetts Teachers' Retirement System (MTRS). The School District is not required to contribute to MTRS. MTRS is fully funded by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and by contributions from covered employees. The Commonwealth is required to make actuarially determined contributions that maintain the financial integrity of the System. The amount of the current funding by the Commonwealth is not available.

All persons employed on at least a half-time basis, who are covered under a contractual agreement requiring certification by the Board of Education, are eligible and must participate in the MTRS. Under the pension plan, benefits are vested immediately if the employee is under 55 years of age. Participants are eligible to receive a retirement allowance once they have completed 20 years of service or have reached age fifty-five. If participants joined the system after January 1, 1978, they must complete ten years of service before receiving a retirement allowance.

295 Based on the Commonwealth of Massachusetts retirement laws, employees covered by the pension plan must contribute a percentage of their gross earnings up to $30,000, into the pension fund. The percentage is determined by the participant's date of entry into the system and his/her total gross earnings up to $30,000 as follows:

Before January 1, 1975 5% January 1, 1975-December 31, 1983 7% After January 1, 1984 8%

Effective January 1, 1989, all participants hired after January 1, 1979 must pay their regular contribution percentage, as outlined above, plus 2% of salary in excess of $30,000.

The payroll for teaching staff covered by MTRS for the year ended June 30, 1996 was approximately $15,215,618.

Non-teaching employees: Substantially all of the School District's non-teaching employees participate in the Barnstable County Retirement Association (the "System"), a multiple-employer public employee retirement system. The payroll for employees covered by the System for the year ended June 30, 1996 was $3,603,674.

Substantially all non-teaching employees of the School District not covered by the Massachusetts Teachers' Retirement System (see above) are eligible to participate in the System. Under the provisions of this retirement plan, employees contribute certain percentages of their pay: 5% if hired prior to 1975, 7% if hired in 1975 through 1983, and 8% if hired in 1984 and later, and are eligible for retirement benefits after meeting the required age-in-service criteria. Annual retirement benefits, generally, range up to 2.5 times average pay, as defined, times years of creditable service. For employees hired after January 1, 1979, pay in excess of $30,000 a year is not included in arriving at average pay used in determining the amount of the employee's pension, but is included in determining the amount of the employee's required contribution to the plan. In fiscal 1992, the $30,000 salary cap was removed and an additional 2% employee contribution was added on regular pay over $30,000 to employees hired after January 1, 1979. The School District's annual contribution is determined by the State Division of Public Employees Retirement Administration. The System requires funding of accrued pension liabilities actuarially in order to pay the employer normal cost plus amortization of the original unfunded actuarial accrued liability by 2027. The contribution requirement for the year ended June 30, 1996 was $716,786 which consisted of $428,019 from the School District and $288,767 from employees.

296 The pension benefit obligation is a standardized disclosure measure of the present value of pension benefits, adjusted for the effects of projected salary increases and step-rate benefits estimated to be payable in the future as a result of employee service to date. The measure, which is the actuarial present value of credited projected benefits, is intended to help users assess the System's funding status on a going-concern basis, assess progress made in accumulating sufficient assets to pay benefits when due, and make comparisons among public employee retirement systems and employers. The System makes separate measurements of assets and pension benefit obligations for individual employers. A summary of the actuarial valuation for the latest date for which information is available follows:

$ Millions (1/1/96) (1/1/93) System as a the School Whole District

Pension benefit obligation $250.7 6.4

Net assets available for benefits (valued at market) 159.2 2 . 6

Unfunded pension benefit obligation $ 91.5 3.8

Significant actuarial assumptions used in the valuation include: 1. Rate of investment return of 8% per year. 2. Projected salary increase of 5.5% per year. 3. No cost-of-living increases have been assumed as these benefits are the responsibility of the state. 4. Assets held are valued at market value as reported to the Public Employees' Retirement Administration (PERA).

The three year and ten year historical trend information showing the System's progress in accumulating sufficient assets to pay benefits when due is not available.

In fiscal 1992, the School District elected to establish a funding schedule to amortize the School District's unfunded actuarial liabilities plus normal cost. The normal cost and unfunded actuarial liability are calculated in accordance with the entry age normal actuarial cost method. Amortization of the unfunded actuarial liability is based on a 40 year schedule for unfunded liabilities prior to removal of the $30,000 salary cap, and 15 year amortization of the additional unfunded liability for removal of the salary cap. The annual amortization for each liability is allowed to increase each year by no more than 4.5%. Payments determined under this funding schedule totaled $131,898 for fiscal 1996.

297 Sick Leave Benefit

Under terms of the contracts covering teaching employees of the School District, certified employees are entitled to fifteen days of paid sick leave, annually. Unused sick leave may be accumulated indefinitely up to a specified maximum. In the event of death, separation, or retirement of an employee having completed ten years of service, such employee or "the employee's estate" shall be compensated at one-half the current daily short term substitute rate for accumulated sick leave. In the case of those who commenced employment on or after September 1, 1975, accumulated sick leave, subject to such payment, is limited to 200 days. Certain other employees are entitled to similar benefits but shall be compensated at a rate of $2.47 per hour (or normal hourly rate for 25% of days accrued for secretaries and aides) for such accumulated sick leave based on average daily hours worked and are limited to 135 days for payment purposes.

Principals and non-union administrative personnel are entitled to 400 days (regardless of employment commencement date) and compensated at 12% of their current daily wage.

Such accumulated vested sick leave has been recognized in the accounts of the School District as to the liability at June 30, 199G.

Deferred Compensation

All permanent School District Employees, either full or part-time, may participate in a deferred compensation plan. The deferred compensation plan is a supplemental, long-term retirement savings program for public employees. An insurance company administers the program. The School District does not contribute to the deferred compensation plan.

An employee can defer up to 25% of his/her pre-tax gross pay, not to exceed $7,500, annually. Each employee dictates how his/her deferred wages are invested. An employee cannot withdraw contributions until he/she has attained the age of 59 1/2 years, has terminated employment, or can demonstrate economic hardship.

The School District is the contractual and beneficial holder of the deferred compensation plan's assets, but has no authority over how the funds are invested.

Deposits and Investments

The School District maintains cash deposits that are available for use by all funds. Each fund type's portion of these deposits is reflected on the combined financial statements under the caption "cash" and the interest earnings attributable to each fund type is included under "investment income". State and local statutes place certain limitations on the nature of deposits and investments available to the School District. Deposits (including demand deposits, term deposits and

298 certificates of deposit) in any one financial institution may not exceed certain levels without collateralization by the financial institutions involved. Investments can also be made in securities issued by or unconditionally guaranteed by the U.S. Government or Agencies that have a maturity of less than one year from date of purchase, and repurchase agreements guaranteed by such securities with maturity dates of no more than 90 days from date of purchase.

Category 1 Deposits that are fully insured by FDIC or the Depositors Insurance Fund (DIF); deposits fully collateralized by securities held by the School District or School District's agent and registered in the name of the School District; securities held by the School District or School District's agent and registered in the School District's name.

Category 2 Deposits that are secured by investments registered in the School District's name but held by the bank or bank's agent; investments (unregistered) held in the School District's name by the bank or bank's agent.

Category 3 These deposits are secured by collateral pledged and held by the depository bank, but not in the School District's name.

Category 4 Uninsured or unsecured deposits.

Included in category 1 of the cash equivalents above is $1,007,413 invested in the Massachusetts Municipal Depository Trust ("MMDT"). The MMDT is duly chartered and administered by the state Treasurer's Office, and the portfolio normally consists of U.S. T-Bills, T-Notes, bank certificates of deposit, repurchase agreements and commercial paper with the highest rating available.

In addition, the bank balance at June 30, 1996 was approximately $1,000,000 greater than the book balance above primarily due to check disbursements issued but not presented for payment at the bank. Substantially all these checks subsequently cleared the bank.

6. Long-Term Debt

The Schools District's long-term debt issues constitute a pledge of the School District's full faith and credit. Payment is not limited to a particular revenue source.
